Abstract

Three monoclonal antibodies, FMC24, 25 and 27, reactive with human platelets, are described. In normal blood the 3 antibodies are specific for platelets, but FMC27 reacts with leukemic blast cells in a proportion of acute leukemias. FMC25 precipitates the platelet membrane glycoprotein lb and a glycoprotein of molecular weight 22,000. The antibodies show different effects on platelet aggregation.
