Background
This antibody recognizes a carbohydrate epitope common to the tumor-associated Lewis Y and Lewis b antigens (Fucalpha1-2Galbeta1-4/3[Fucalpha1-3/4]GlcNAcbeta-). Its specificity was established without doubt with a panel of 86 synthetic mono- and oligosaccharidic structures. Lewis Y is expressed in large bowel tumors and colorectal carcinomas. It may be useful in the classification of human renal and bladder tumors. The Lewis Y antigen has been evaluated as a clinical marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer.
