1.	Choriocarcinoma 02/01/1993 - "The LK26 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein (M(r)35,000 to 40,000) of normal placenta and gestational choriocarcinomas that shows highly restricted distribution in normal tissues, being expressed primarily in a subset of simple epithelia. " 04/15/1985 - "Antigen LK26 is expressed on all cultured choriocarcinoma, teratocarcinoma and renal cancer lines but is absent from most cell lines derived from other tumor types and from cultures of normal kidney epithelium and fibroblasts.
