Abstract
For cancer immunotherapy, it is usually necessary to obtain a large number of tumor cells from patients. We have previously reported that syndecan-I is present only on malignant plasma cells in samples from patients with multiple myelomatosis. We report here that this antigen is cleaved by chymopapain. This makes it possible to develop a rapid and clinical grade procedure to purify large numbers of myeloma cells using anti-syndecan-1 mAb, magnetic beads and chymopapain.Entities:
