Antibody immunity to the HER-2/neu oncogenic protein in patients with colorectal cancer.

abstract：:In attempts to examine the relationships between serologic and structural polymorphisms of HLA-DQ molecules we have analyzed several monoclonal antibodies generated against polymorphic determinants on HLA-DQ molecules. One antibody, SFR20-DQw3, has a serologic reactivity like that of the previously characterized anti-...
