Product Name | Anti-Cytokeratin pan Monoclonal Antibody |
---|---|
Description | Cytokeratins are precisely regulated in tissue and little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying this regulation. However, the expression pattern of cytokeratin 6 is known to be particularly complex. It is found in hair follicles, suprabasal cells of a variety of internal stratified epithelia, in epidermis, in both normal and hyperproliferative situations. Mouse monoclonal Antibody to Cytokeratin pan. Lu-5 represents an excellent marker for all types of epithelia. Ideal marker for immunolocalization studies on frozen and paraffin embedded tissue. |

Clone | Lu5 |
Immunogen | Cells of lung cancer cell line A549 and A2182 |
Isotype | Mouse IgG1 |
Specificity | Useful for distinguishing carcinomas from non- epithelial tumors. Tumors specifically detected: all epithelium-derived neoplasms. The antibody is suitable for discriminating of keratinizing and non-keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma versus e.g. poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. |
