  • Abstract
    The discovery of novel markers for breast cancer (BC) has been recently relied on antibody combinatorial libraries and selection through phage display. We constructed a recombinant Fab library, and after selections against BC tissues, the FabC4 clone was thoroughly investigated by immunohistochemistry in 232 patients with long-term follow-up. The FabC4 ligand was determined by mass spectrometry. The FabC4 expression was associated with younger age, lack of progesterone receptor, higher histological grades and non-luminal subtypes, and it also identified a subset of good prognostic triple-negative BCs, possibly targeting a conformational epitope of Cytokeratin-10 (CK10). This new CK10-epitope specific antibody may open new possibilities in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
