Monoclonal antibodies against Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen (T-Ag) were obtained by the hybridoma technique. The expression of T-Ag in 73 specimens of bladder cancer was examined by the immunofluorescence method using these monoclonal antibodies. Seventeen (53%) of grade I, 18 (44%) of grade II and 5 (50%) of grade III were diffusely stained with anti-T. Of the T-negative tumors, 14 (44%) of grade I and 13 (32%) of grade II showed positive staining after neuraminidase treatment (cryptic T-positive) while only 1 (10%) of grade III was cryptic T-positive. On the contrary, only 1 case (3%) of grade I was cryptic T-negative while 10 (24%) of grade II and 4 (40%) of grade III (were. The T-antigen expression and the histological grades correlated significantly (p less than 0.05). Twenty-eight (70%) of the T-positive cases and 9 (60%) of the cryptic T-negative cases recurred while only 3 (11%) of the cryptic T-positive cases did (p less than 0.01). The monoclonal antibodies were more useful than peanut lectin (PNA) or conventional polyclonal antibodies on the detection of T-antigen.
通过杂交瘤技术获得了抗汤姆森 - 弗里德赖希抗原(T抗原)的单克隆抗体。使用这些单克隆抗体,通过免疫荧光法检测了73例膀胱癌标本中T抗原的表达情况。I级肿瘤中有17例(53%)、II级中有18例(44%)、III级中有5例(50%)被抗T抗体弥漫性染色。在T抗原阴性的肿瘤中,I级的14例(44%)和II级的13例(32%)在神经氨酸酶处理后显示阳性染色(隐匿性T抗原阳性),而III级中只有1例(10%)为隐匿性T抗原阳性。相反,I级中只有1例(3%)为隐匿性T抗原阴性,II级中有10例(24%),III级中有4例(40%)。T抗原表达与组织学分级显著相关(p小于0.05)。T抗原阳性病例中有28例(70%)复发,隐匿性T抗原阴性病例中有9例(60%)复发,而隐匿性T抗原阳性病例中只有3例(11%)复发(p小于0.01)。在检测T抗原方面,单克隆抗体比花生凝集素(PNA)或传统多克隆抗体更有用。
