| Immunogen Information : |
M1 mucin prepaRation from the fluid of an ovarian mucinous cyst belonging to an O Le(a-b) patient |
This MAb recognizes the peptide core of gastric mucin M1 (recently identified as Mucin 5AC).? Its epitope is destroyed by beta-mercaptoethanol but not by periodate treatment. This mucin is present in primary ovarian mucinous cancer but usually absent in colorectal adenocarcinoma, thus showing an expression pattern opposite to MUC2. Together with a panel of antibodies, Anti-MUC5AC may be useful for differential identification of primary mucinous ovarian tumors from colon adenocarcinoma metastatic to the ovary. MUC5AC antibodies may also be useful for identification of intestinal metaplasia as well as in the identification of pancreatic carcinoma and pre-cancerous changes vs. normal pancreas.
ELISA (For coating use Ab at 1-5ug/ml, order Ab without BSA)
