Characterization of the ETSA-21 antigen, a glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol anchor glycoprotein identified in breast cancer cells using monoclonal antibody B21

Mab B21 is a monoclonal antibody (Mab) that recognizes an epithelial tumor surface antigen (ETSA-B21) from diverse human tumor cell lines including breast, ovary, uterus, and their cognate carcinoma tissues. A lower reactivity has been observed in normal breast tissue and benign hyperplesia. In this...
