Abstract

The reactivity of monoclonal antibodies from the 5th workshop Selectins/Selectin Ligands panel, directed to the sialylated Lewis(x) and sialylated Lewis(a) determinants, with the human breast carcinoma (BT-20, ZR-75-1 and MDA-MB-468) cell lines, human ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780, fibrosarcoma (HT-1080, B-6FS) and hematopoietic neoplastic (U-937, HL-60, K-562) cell lines were determined with the aid of flow immunocytofluorometry. The examined monoclonal antibodies to sialylated Lewis determinants reacted with examined breast carcinoma, but not with the examined ovarian carcinoma and fibrosarcoma cell lines.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
