LA102 reacts with mouse lymphatic vessels except the thoracic duct and the marginal sinus of lymph nodes, but not with any blood vessels. LA102 recognized a protein of around 26 kDa. The antigen recognized by LA102 was localized on both luminal and abluminal lymphatic endothelial cell membranes. Besides lymphatics, some lymphoid cells are also recognized.
