Description:
This antibody recognizes a protein of 67 kDa, which is identified as estrogen receptor (ER). ER content of breast cancer tissue is an important parameter in the prediction of prognosis and response to endocrine therapy. This antibody strongly stains the nucleus of epithelial cells in breast carcinomas. The ER is an important regulator of growth and differentiation in the mammary gland. Presence of ER in breast tumors indicates an increased likelihood of response to anti-estrogen (e.g. tamoxifen) therapy.

This antibody is specific against an epitope located on the β chain (i.e. in S-100a and S-100b) but not on the α chain of S-100 (i.e. in S-100a and S-100ao). This antibody can be used to localize S-100a and S-100b in various tissue sections.

Description:
PTEN gene is a tumor suppressor gene that maps to chromosome 10q23. PTEN, a novel tumor suppressor, functions as a regulator of both cell cycle progression and apoptosis ). Potentially, mutation and deletion of PTEN gene may result in a new signal transduction pathway related to human malignant tumors. Studies have demonstrated a reduction of PTEN expression in advanced breast cancers.

The antibody is specific against gastrin-containing cells. This anti-body reacts with human gastrin I and human gastrin I fragments. No cross-reactivity was observed with rat gastrin, human big gastrin, human gastrin releasing peptide, sulfated cholecystokinin amide, non-sulfated cholecystokinin amide and cholecystokinin.

Description:
Recognizes a protein of 48 kDa, which is identified as Adipophilin. It belongs to the perilipin family, members of which coat intracellular lipid storage droplets. This protein is associated with the lipid globule surface membrane material, and maybe involved in development and maintenance of adipose tissue. However, it is not restricted to adipocytes as previously thought, but is found in a wide range of cultured cell lines, including fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells, and tissues, such as lactating mammary gland, adrenal cortex, Sertoli and Leydig cells, and hepatocytes in alcoholic liver cirrhosis, suggesting that it may serve as a marker of lipid accumulation in diverse cell types and diseases.

Description:
This antibody recognizes human retinoblastoma gene protein. Rb gene, a prototype of tumor suppressor genes, has been associated with development and/or progression of bladder cancer as well as sarcoma and small cell lung cancer. Functional Rb gene loss has been reported to occur in bladder cancer and osteosarcoma. A significantly poorer tumor-free survival rate was noted for those patients who had a tumor with an altered Rb protein with or without vascular invasion.

Description:
This antibody is specific to epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), CA 15-3, or polymorphic epithelial mucin. This antibody stains an underglycosylated MUC1 often present on carcinoma cells.

Description:
This antibody stains with ORF-73 of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8). HHV8 is the likely etiological agent of Kaposi sarcoma (KS). HHV8 encodes a latent nuclear antigen (LNA), which is the product of the viral gene ORF 73. LNA is capable of forming a complex with retinoblastoma susceptibility gene product, which may be related to its oncogenic activity.

Description:
This antibody recognizes CD5, which is a transmembrane protein, is found on 95% of thymocytes and 72% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. In lymph nodes, the main reactivity is observed in T cell areas. CD5 is expressed by many T cell leukemia, lymphomas, and activated T cells. Occasionally, CD5 antigen is also expressed on a subset of B cells. Mantle cell lymphomas (same as diffuse centrocytic lymphomas) are CD5(+) while the follicle center cell lymphoma is CD5(-).

Description:
P504S has been recently described as a prostate cancer-specific gene that encodes a protein involved in the β-oxidation of branched chain fatty acids. Expression of p504S protein is found in prostatic adenocarcinoma but not in benign prostatic tissue. It stains premalignant lesions of prostate: high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) and atypical adenomatous hyperplasia. P504S can be used as a positive marker for PIN.

Description:
This antibody is specific to human cytokeratins 8 (52.5 kDa) and 18 (45 kDa). This antibody stains simple and glandular epithelium. This antibody can be useful for the identification of adenocarcinomas and most squamous cell carcinomas.

Diagnostic Biosystems
Description:
This antibody reacts with a subset of B-lymphocytes localized in the follicular mantle zone. It reacts with 97% of hairy cell leukemia cases. This antibody shows strong positive staining of about 35% of cases of high grade B cell lymphomas.

Description:
CD138, also known as Syndecan-1, is a member of the transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan family, acts as an extracellular matrix receptor and is involved in many cellular functions, including cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion. CD138 expression is found in both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. In the hematopoietic system, CD138 labels plasma cells. It is an excellent marker for plasmacytic differentiation within the spectrum of hematologic malignancy. Among non-hematolymphoid cells, CD138 reactivity is observed in many types of epithelial cells and stoma cells in both normal and tumor tissues.

Description:
This antibody is specific to an oncofetal antigen of >1,000 kDa known as tumor associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) or CA 72-4. This antibody defines the mucin carried sialylated-Tn antigen. This antibody stains the majority of human adenocarcinomas including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, ovarian, endometrial, mammary and non-small cell lung cancer.
