title: [Characterization of monoclonal antibodies to human monocytes].
abstract: A set of monoclonal antibodies reacting with human peripheral blood monocytes is characterized. Two of these antibodies also bind to a fraction of granulocytes (BL-M/G-1) respectively to all of them (BL-M/G-2). On the other hand the BL-M-3 appears to be specific for monocytes only. All three monoclonals do not react with enriched B and T lymphocytes, platelets, erythrocytes and several lymphoid or erythroid permanent cell lines. The antigens recognized by all three monoclonals are expressed by monoblastic cell line U-937, whereas the myeloid line HL-60 and the cell line KG-1 express only antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody BL-M/G-2.
