Glycocholic acid (GCA) is an important metabolite of bile acids, whose urine levels are expected to be a specific diagnostic biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A high-throughput immunoassay for determination of GCA would be of significant advantage and useful for primary diagnosis, surveillance and early detection of HCC. Single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibodies have several desirable characteristics and are an attractive alternative to traditional antibodies for the immunoassay. Because chicken antibodies possess single heavy and light variable functional domains, it is an ideal framework for simplified generation of recombinant antibodies for GCA detection. However, the chicken scFvs have rarely been used to detect GCA. In this study, a scFv library was generated from chickens immunized with a GCA hapten coupled to bovine serum albumin (BSA), and anti-GCA scFvs were isolated by a phage-displayed method. Compared to the homologous coating antigen, using a heterologous coating antigen resulted in about an 85-fold improvement in sensitivity in the immunoassay. This assay, under optimized conditions, had a linear range of 0.02 ~ 0.18 μg/mL, with an IC50 of 0.06 μg/mL. The assay showed negligible cross-reactivity with various related bile acids, except for taurocholic acid. The detection of GCA from spiked human urine samples ranged from 86.7 to 123.3 %. These results, combined with the advantage of the scFv antibodies, indicated that a chicken scFv-based ELISA is a suitable method for high-throughput screening of GCA in human urine.
