The technique would provide an alternative to invasive biopsies that retrieve tumour tissue for analysis. By Heidi Ledford.

In Nature http://www.nature.com/news/cancer-costs-1.12581 New Monoclonal Antibody Developed That Can Target Proteins Inside Cancer Cells Researchers have discovered a unique monoclonal antibody that can effectively reach inside a cancer cell, a key goal for these important anticancer agents, since most proteins that cause cancer or are associated with cancer are buried inside cancer cells. Scientists from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and Eureka Therapeutics have collaborated to create the new human monoclonal antibody, which targets a protein associated with many types of cancer and is of great interest to cancer researchers.
