摘要 |
The present invention pertains to a monoclonal antibody, or fragment thereof, having an antigen-binding specific region for NKX3.1 and to a hybridoma cell line for producing the monoclonal antibody. The present invention also pertains to a method for detecting the presence of NKX3.1 in a sample. The method comprises (a) contacting a biopsy tissue sample with a monoclonal antibody, or a fragment thereof, having an antigen-binding specific region for NKX3.1, under conditions permitting immunospecific binding between the monoclonal antibody, or a fragment thereof, and NKX3.1 in the sample; and (b) detecting whether immunospecific binding has occurred to detect the presence of NKX3.1 in the sample.
