• Beschreibung: Lewis X is a glycoprotein found on the surface of red blood cells and is composed of a trisaccharide that is covalently attached to the protein. It is expressed in the cells of all individuals, but at different levels depending on their blood group. Lewis X is an antigen for monoclonal antibody, which recognizes it by binding to its sugar residues. The antibody can be used to detect Lewis X-expressing cells in the blood and for cancer diagnosis. Antibodies against Lewis X can also be used to inhibit tumor growth by enhancing natural killer cell activity and killing tumor cells.
