Abstract

Single chain fragment (ScFv) antiidiotypic antibodies (antilds) of a killer toxin (KT) from the yeast Pichia anomala have been produced by recombinant DNA methodology from the splenic lymphocytes of mice immunized by idiotypic vaccination with a KT-neutralizing monoclonal antibody (Mab KT4). ScFv KT-like antilds (KTIdAb) react with specific Candida albicans KT cell wall receptors (KTR) exerting a candidacidal activity in vitro could be neutralized by adsorption with Mab KT4. ScFv KTIdAb displayed an effective therapeutic activity in an experimental model of rat candidal vaginitis.
