Abstract
A monoclonal antibody raised to colorectal carcinoma, and a hybridoma which elicits the antibody, have been produced. This antibody, ND4 has been discovered to react with a new tumor marker, a glycoprotein of approximately 160 kD found on the surface of undifferentiated colorectal carcinoma cells; it does not cross-react with other known tumor markers. It is useful for detecting and monitoring colorectal carcinoma.
