Abstract:Background. The antitumor effect and toxicity of immunoconjugates were studied in nude mice bearing a human ovarian cancer cell line, OVA-1. Methods. We studied the tissue distribution of an anticytokeratin-8 monoclonal antibody (6D7) in OVA-1-bearing nude mice by giving 6D7 labelled with 125 I. The immuno conjugate consisted of 6D7 and carboplatin (6D7-conjugate), coupled via carboxymethyl dextran, and this was intraperitoneally administered to OVA-1 bearing nude mice. The tumor volume and the body weight wer… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
