The murine monoclonal antibody CI-panHu reacts strongly with the cell surface of all human cells, including erythrocytes. tumour cells and HLA-AB,C-negative cell lines. As such, this antibody defines the first pan-human cell-surface antigen reported. The antigenic determinant detected is associated with a protein doublet of 16,000 MW whose expression is restricted to cells from humans, apes and some species of Old World monkeys. Antibody reactivity is not diminished by routine fixation procedures. nor by paraffin-embedding, and the antigenic determinant is relatively protease- resistant. The use of this antibody as a positive control in immunoassays of human cells is discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
