A monoclonal antibody detects heterogeneity in vascular endothelium of tumours and normal tissues
Abstract
A new murine monoclonal antibody (MAb), E‐9, has been raised using tissue‐cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The antigen recognized by this MAb is a peptide of 170 kDa under non‐reducing conditions and 96 kDa under reducing conditions. MAb E‐9 showed marked heterogeneity in its distribution in various tissues. The antigen recognized by it was present in vascular endothelial cells of all tumours, foetal organs and in regenerating and inflamed tissues. It stained a few normal tissues. However, with the exception of tonsils, staining tended to be weak and limited to a few blood vessels, as revealed by double staining using pan‐endothelial antibody (CD31) and antibody to von Willebrand factor, another marker of vascular endothelium. Surprisingly, blood vessels within the placental villi were completely negative. The function of the antigen recognized by MAb E‐9 is not known, but its evaluation and use should increase our understanding of angiogenesis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
