Abstract
The monoclonal antibody against human hepatocellular carcinoma, HAb23, was conjugated with radioiodine and injected into nude mice with human hepatoma xenografts. After 4 to 5 days, the nude mice were scanned by emission computerized topography. The results showed that the xenografts were distinguished clearly. The tumor-liver and tumor-blood ratios were 1.94 to 3.66 and 0.56 to 1.65, respectively. Autoradiography showed that the HAb23 was localized mainly on the surface membrane and tubulovesicular systems of the tumor cells.
