A series of monoclonal antibodies were characterized that define 4 surface antigens (MY3, MY4, MY7 and MY8) of human myeloid cells. They were derived from a fusion of the (mouse) NS-I plasmacytoma cell line with splenocytes from a mouse immunized with human acute myelomonocytic leukemia cells. MY3 and MY4 are expressed by normal monocytes and by > 90% of patients with acute monocytic leukemia or acute myelomonocytic leukemia but are detected much less often on other types of myeloid leukemia. MY7 is expressed by granulocytes, monocytes and 5% of normal bone marrow cells. Of all acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) patients tested (72 patients), 79% expressed MY7 without preferential expression by any AML subtype. MY8 is expressed by normal monocytes, granulocytes, all peroxidase-positive bone marrow cells and 50% of AML patients. MY3, MY4 and MY8 define myeloid differentiation antigens in that they are not detected on myeloid precursor cells and appear at discrete stages of differentiation. These antigens are not expressed by lymphocytes, erythrocytes, platelets or lymphoid malignancies. The monoclonal antisera defining these antigens have been used to study differentiation of normal myeloid cells and malignant myeloid cell lines.
