[Immunoautoradiographic determination of beta-1 gamma globulin in the blood serum of patients with trophoblastic tumors].

The authors determined beta1-G-globulin (beta1GG) in the sera of patients with different malignant tumours and of normal donors by means of the immunodiffusion method (ID) and immunoautoradiography (IAR). In the ID-negative sera beta1GG was revealed by means of IAR in 7 out of 8 patients with chorionepithelioma of the uterus and in 1 out of 7 patients with teratomblastoma of the testis before the treatment. After the treatment the beta1GG was determined in 7 out of 21 patients with chorionepithelioma of the uterus. At the early stage of trophoblastic tumours of the uterus beta1GG could be found in 77.7% of cases by means of IAR and in 16.8% of cases by means of the ID method.
