Abstract
Human monoclonal antibodies (HmAbs) capable of reacting with cytokeratin are disclosed. It has been found that HmAbs De8, M54, M307, Hull, C29, Hu22 and Pa24 may be used to detect these cytoskeletal proteins in various cells. By means of these HmAbs the embryological origin of cells may be determined. This information may be used to determine the possible tissue source of metastasized tumors and greatly affects the management of these cancers.
