In the blood serum of a proportion of breast cancer patients (29.4%) immune complexes specifically reacting with the immunoglobulins of the serum against MMTV structural proteins were detected using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The presence of such complexes could decrease the titre of antibodies reactive with MMTV in the blood serum of breast cancer patients.
