Analysis of gastric epithelial cells and H. mustelae strain using whole-cell antiserum raised in rabbits against H. mustelae strain and preimmune serum. Lanes 1 and 7, H. mustelae strain 12198; lanes 2 and 8, ferret gastric epithelial cells; lane 3, ferret duodenal epithelial cells; lane 4, ferret colonic epithelial cells; lane 5, rabbit gastric epithelial cells; and lane 6, human gastric epithelial cells. Lanes 1–6 were incubated with H. mustelae antiserum, and lanes 7 and 8 were incubated with preimmune serum. Molecular masses are indicated (in kilodaltons) on the left.

Detection of cross-reacting bands using whole cell antiserum raised against H. mustelae strain adsorbed with H. mustelae whole cells or rabbit and ferret epithelial cells. Lanes 1 and 2, H. mustelae strain 12198; and lanes 3–5, ferret gastric epithelial cells. Lanes 1 and 3 were incubated with H. mustelae antiserum, lanes 2 and 4 were incubated with H. mustelae antiserum adsorbed with rabbit and ferret epithelial cells, and lane 5 was incubated with H. mustelae antiserum adsorbed with H. mustelae strain Molecular masses are indicated (in kilodaltons) on the left.

Identification of blood group antigens on H. mustelae, H. pylori, and ferret gastric cells. Lanes 1, 4, and 7, ferret gastric cells; lanes 2, 5, and 8, H. mustelae strain 12198; and lanes 3, 6, and 9, H. pylori strain PU3. Lanes 1–3 were incubated with monoclonal antibodies against blood group antigen A, lanes 4–6 were incubated with monoclonal antibodies against Lewis x, and lanes 7–9 were incubated with monoclonal antibodies against Lewis y. The molecular masses (in kilodaltons) are indicated on the left.
