Am. Vazquez et al., GENERATION OF A MURINE MONOCLONAL-ANTIBODY SPECIFIC FOR N-GLYCOLYLNEURAMINIC ACID-CONTAINING GANGLIOSIDES THAT ALSO RECOGNIZES SULFATED GLYCOLIPIDS, Hybridoma, 14(6), 1995, pp. 551-556
The P3 murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) was generated by immunizing BA
LB/c mice with NeuGcGM3 included into liposomes. The specificity of th
is MAb was defined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunos
taining on thin-layer chromatograms. P3 MAb binds to NeuGc-containing
gangliosides and was shown also to react with sulfated glycolipids. A
preliminary immunohistochemical study showed that the P3 MAb was able
to recognize antigens expressed in human breast tumors.
