Abstract
The present invention pertains to the novel hybridoma SDW18.1.1, hybridomas obtained from SDW18.1.1, monoclonal antibodies obtained from such hybridomas and derivatives of such monoclonal antibodies. The novel hybridomas are formed by fusion of cells from a mouse myeloma line and spleen cells from a mouse previously immunized with cachectin/TNF. Diagnostic and therapeutic utilities for the monoclonal antibodies and their derivatives are proposed, and testing procedures, materials in kit form and pharmaceutical compositions are likewise set forth.
