Abstract excerpt
The biosynthetic pathways of the Lewis histo-blood type antigens, Lewis a (Le(a)) and Lewis b (Le(b)), in correlation with ABH antigen synthesis and the synthesis of sialyl Lewis antigens, sialyl Lewis a (sLe(a)) and sialy Lewis x (sLe(x)), known as tumor associated antigens are described based on the recent molecular biological studies. Individuals are divided by their erythrocyte Lewis antigen phenotypes into...
