Study on the cell adhesion activity of CEA on tumor cell lines / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

Cell adhesion activity of CEA on tumor cell lines was studied in the experiment.Single cell suspension of CEA positive ceils LoVo and HeLa aggregated respectively in RPMI1640 completemedium at 37℃ to form cell aggregates in different size.The cell aggregation could be specificly inhibited by anti-CEA polyclonal antibodies and purified CEA antigen.Similar results were obtained using cell adhesion assay.The experiment indicated that CEA is one of cell adhesion molecules.
