The specificities of monoclonal antibodies against melanoma cells were analyzed using radioimmunoassay, mixed-hemadsorption assay, and quantitative absorption on a variety of malignant and nonmalignant cells. Three of the six hybridoma-secreted antibodies bound to the majority of melanoma cell lines, melanoma tumors, and astrocytoma cell lines as well as to all normal and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphocytes tested. The binding pattern coincides with the presence or absence of the DR antigen on human cells. Conversely, two other antibodies, 19-19 and Nu4B, detected two different antigens common to melanoma and astrocytoma cells only. Cloning of melanoma cells resulted in establishment of DR-positive and DR-negative clones, with the binding of Nu4B antibody retained in all.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.

D008819 Mice, Nude Mutant mice homozygous for the recessive gene "nude" which fail to develop a thymus. They are useful in tumor studies and studies on immune responses. Athymic Mice,Mice, Athymic,Nude Mice,Mouse, Athymic,Mouse, Nude,Athymic Mouse,Nude Mouse
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
