ANTI ALPHA-GAL IGM MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY CAPABLE OF RECOGNISING CELLS INFECTED WITH THE HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS, AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING SAME.

摘要

The invention relates to the development of an Igm-type monoclonal antibody (AcMo) directed against a-Gal present in the membrane of cells infected with the human papillomavirus and to a diagnosis technique using labelling with fluorophore of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). The invention also relates to the use of same as a method that is complementary to existing methods, offering increased specificity and sensitivity, for the in situ and in vivo diagnosis and treatment of patients with HPV.
