Expression of nonspecific cross-reacting antigen species in myeloid leukemic patients and healthy subjects

Abstract: The reactivity of two monoclonal antibodies recognizing NCA-95 and NCA-55 (MAb 47 and MAb 192, respectively) with a polyclonal anti-NCA serum in myeloid leukemic cells isolated by density gradient centrifugation was compared using an immunofluorescence test (IF). It was observed that the blood myeloid cells in 78.8% of the patients with different types of myelocytic leukemias and all granulocytes of 15 normal donors showed similar expression of the NCA species studied. The leukocytes of the remaining patients … Show more

“…24,25,33,49,50 We felt that these advantageous properties outweighed potential disadvantages such as a lack of binding to myeloid leukaemic blasts. [28][29][30]32 This reliance on the crossfire effect clearly imposes certain limitations on the kinds of patients that can be treated with this approach. Thus, we restricted ourselves to treating patients in remission or PR.…”

“…[25][26][27] The CD66 antigen is expressed at a high density (2 ϫ 10 5 molecules per cell) on normal myelopoietic cells from the promyelocyte onward but not on AML blasts. [28][29][30][31] Aberrant expression is found on a significant fraction of CD10 ϩ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) blasts. 31,32 The CD66 molecule is neither internalized nor shed.…”

“…They are expressed on myelopoietic cells beyond the maturation stage of promyelocytes. Details of the antibody/epitope interaction have been reported previously [9,12,13,14]. No internalisation or shedding occurs after mAb binding.…”

“…Non specific cross-reacting antigen-antibody (TcNCAA) binds to granulopoetic bone marrow cells and granulocytes in peripheral blood via interaction with nonspecific cross-reacting antigen 95 (NCA-95) ( 14). NCA-95 is expressed in the cytoplasm and at the cell membrane of granulocytes as well as on mature granulopoetic bone marrow cells (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). Erythropoetic, thrombopoetic and lymphatic cells did not express NCA-95 (18,20).…”
