Abstract excerpt
Operationally specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) reactive with tumor but not normal adult tissues offer great potential for diagnosis and therapy of CNS neoplasms. Two targets for specific MAb localization were chosen for this study: (1) glioma-associated gangliosides GM2 [II3NeuAc-GgOse3Cer], GD2 [II3(NeuAc)2-GgOse3Cer], GD3[II3(NeuAc)2-LacCer], 3'-isoLM1 [IV3NeuAc-LcOse4Cer], and 3',6'-isoLD1...
