Imaging of myocardial infarction in dogs and humans using monoclonal antibodies specific for human myosin heavy chains

The use of three different monoclonal antibodies specific for human ventricular myosin heavy chains in the visualization or the location and extent of necrosis in dogs with experimental acute myocardial infarction and in humans is described. Using a classic immunohistochemical method or ex vivo anal...

Zusammenfassung:The use of three different monoclonal antibodies specific for human ventricular myosin heavy chains in the visualization or the location and extent of necrosis in dogs with experimental acute myocardial infarction and in humans is described. Using a classic immunohistochemical method or ex vivo analysis of heart slices in dogs with acute myocardial infarction subjected to intravenous injection of unlabeled antimyosin antibodies or antimyosin antibodies labeled with indium-111, it was observed that all antibody fragments specifically reached the targeted necrotic zone
