title: [Reactivity of a novel monoclonal antibody ZCH-7-2D3 on leukemia cells and its clinical significance].
abstract: To analyze the reactive pattern and its clinical significance of ZCH-7-2D3 monoclonal antibody on leukemia cells.
  
  
  
  Bone marrow samples from 100 leukemia patients (male 59: female 41, 34 cases of children and 66 adults, aged 11 months - 77 year) were collected. A CD45 gating strategy and multi-parameter flow cytometry were used to analyze the leukemia cells.
  
  
  
  The positive rate (10/31) of 2D3 antibody on acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) patients was significantly lower than that (39/55) of acute myelogeneous leukemia (AML) (P <0.01). 2D3 was positive for all three cases of B/myeloid mixed lineage leukemia, but negative in 6 cases of chronic myelogeneous leukemia (CML), significantly lower than that in AML (39/55, P<0.01) patients. There was no difference between the positive rates of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL, 3/5) and B lineage ALL (9/28, P = 0.2389). The antibody was not found to recognize the differentiation stages of either ALL and AML subtypes.
  
  
  
  2D3 monoclonal antibody primarily recognizes AML cases. Further studies on cloning of gene encoding the antigen protein and its biological functions are warranted.
