ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to monoclonal antibodies to the .alpha.v.beta.3 integrin receptor known to be expressed in large amounts on the surface of osteoclasts and accordingly, associated with bone resorption. The disclosed monoclonal antibodies are believed to recognize unique epitopes on .alpha.v.beta.3 and are useful in the treatment of conditions associated with excessive bone resorption and/or in the inhibition of tumor cell growth.
