Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Seven murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) detecting blood group antigens of the Lewis system and their sialylated derivatives were used to define their immunohistochemical distribution in normal and malignant pancreatic tissues. The specific blood group antigens studied included Lewis(a) (Le(a)), Lewisb (Leb), Lewisx (Le(x)), Lewis(y) (Le(y)), sialyl-Lewis(a) (s-Le(a)), sialyl-lacto-N-tetraose...
