[Monoclonal antibody to human pancreatic carcinoma cells]. 1987

S Koyama, and K Fukao, and T Osuga

A monoclonal antibody (MoAb, SK-930) of the IgG2a subclass to human pancreatic carcinoma cells (MIA-PaCa 2) was obtained by hybridization of spleen cells from immunized Balb/c mice with murine myeloma cells. SK-930 was investigated for reacting in indirect immunofluorescence on FACS against a panel comprising 12 types of different origin. SK-930 reacted with seven out of 11 tumor cells and with one PBL. Immunoperoxidase techniques (ABC method) showed that SK-930 antigen was present on pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, but could not be detected on normal pancreatic tissue. Immunoprecipitation experiments and SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that SK-930 recognized 134K dalton peptide on tumor cells. These results suggest that SK-930 reacts with a novel pancreatic cancer-associated antigen.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010190	Pancreatic Neoplasms	Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).
