Abstract

The loss of blood group antigens in cancer has often been demonstrated. Davidsohn and co-workers propose the use of the mixed cells agglutination reaction for the prognostic evaluation and early diagnosis of carcinoma. Our own investigations confirm, that the mixed agglutination reaction can be easily applied to routine diagnosis. It was difficult to demonstrate H-antigen with the blood group O and to detect blood group substances in rectum cancers. The tissue sections could not be assessed by our technique.

Antibodies: Agglutination

Antibody-mediated agglutination is the clumping of cells in the presence of antibody, which binds multiple cells together. This enhances the clearance of pathogens. Find the latest research on antibody-mediated agglutination here.

Carcinoma, Squamous Cell
