PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview Rabbit anti-human prostate stem cell antigen polyclonal antibody is intended for qualitative immunohistochemistry with normal and neoplastic formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections, to be viewed by light microscopy. Clinical interpretation of st
Antigen Description Prostate stem cell antigen is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PSCA gene. This gene encodes a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored cell membrane glycoprotein. In addition to being highly expressed in the prostate it is also expressed in the bladder, placenta, colon, kidney, and stomach. This gene is up-regulated in a large proportion of prostate cancers and is also detected in cancers of the bladder and pancreas. This gene has a nonsynonymous nucleotide polymorphism at its start codon.
Specificity This antibody reacts with a ~14 kD protein. Prostate Stem Cell Antigen (PSCA) is a cell surface antigen which is overexpressed in ~ 40% of primary prostate cancers and in nearly 100% of metastatic cancers. PSCA is also overexpressed in the majority of tra
