ABSTRACT:
Monoclonal antibodies demonstrating a reactivity with human breast cancer are produced. The hybridoma cultures secreting immunoglobins are produced by hydridoma technology. Splenic lymphocytes of mice, immunized with membrane-enriched fractions of metastatic human mammary carcinoma tissue are fused with the NS-1 non-immunoglobulin-secreting murine myeloma cell line. Screening of immunoglobulin reactivities and double cloning of cultures yielded 11 monoclonal antibodies that demonstrated activities with the surface of human mammary tumor cells and not with the surface of apparently normal human tissues. These monoclonal antibodies aid in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of human breast cancer.
