ABSTRACT:
A monoclonal antibody recognizing an autocrine growth factor that reacts with activated lymphocytes and cancer cells is described. The growth factor, a small glycoprotein is distinct from interleukin 2 and other known growth factors by function, structure and tissue distribution. A homologous growth factor is present in lymphoid tissues of a wide range of vertebrate species. Diagnostic and therapeutic uses of the growth factor and antibody-growth factor complex are disclosed. Also disclosed are therapeutic uses of synthetic analogues and peptide derivatives of the antigen.
