Antibody-induced antigen redistribution and shedding from human breast cancer cells

R E Nordquist et al. Science. .

Abstract

Cell surface antigens of human breast cancer cells undergo a rapid redistribution when bound by antibodies from cancer patients. The subsequent shedding of these antigen-antibody complexes and free antigen may be instrumental in tumor survival.
