We screened the immunoglobulin production stimulating factor (IPSF) in foodstuffs, using human-human hybridoma HB4C5 cells cultured in serum-free ITES-ERDF medium, and found that egg yolk lipoprotein (YLP), lactoferrin, Block Ace, and casein had IPSF activity. The maximum IPSF activity was obtained at concentrations over 100μg/ml in YLP, 10μg/ml in lactoferrin, and 25μg/ml in Block Ace and casein. These IPSFs stimulated the IgM production of human-human and mouse-mouse hybridomas, but their effect on IgG producers was very small. This suggests that IgG production of hybridomas is regulated differently from their IgM production.
