Abstract:Two hybridomas secreting two monoclonal antibodies IgG1 B1.4 and IgG2a B1.6 were obtained by immunizing BALB/c mice with human bladder cancer cell line EJ-1. In immunohistochemical staining of cryopreserved tissues, B1.4 reacted with 0 of 9 grade 1 TCC, 6 of 11 grade 2, all of 6 grade 3 and five metastatic specimens. The antigen recognized by B1.4 was not expressed by normal urothelial cells but were expressed by vascular endothelial cells and muscle of tunica media. The target antigen of B1.6 was expressed by… Show more
