Cat#:PA-993F;Product Name:Mouse Anti-Paired Box 8 Antibody;Synonym:paired box protein Pax-8; paired box 8; OTTHUMP00000203723; paired box gene 8 OTTHUMP00000203724; OTTHUMP00000158659; OTTHUMP00000158660; paired domain gene 8; PAX8;Background:Paired box gene 8, also known as PAX8, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PAX8 gene. PAX8 is expressed in a high percentage of renal cell carcinomas and ovarian cancers. This mouse monoclonal PAX8 antibody [CC13] has been designed to target restricted epitopes, and exhibits higher specificity and provides sharper staining than the PAX8 rabbit Monoclonal antibody. Unlike the Monoclonal PAX8, this mouse Monoclonal Antibody does not stain B-cells, and does not recognize epitopes of pancreatic origin and neuroendocrine cells in stomach and colon; thus providing superior specificity. The expression of the mouse monoclonal PAX8 target antigens was found in normal kidney, thyroid and cervix, but was not identified in normal ovary. PAX8 stains nuclei exclusively and performs well in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues.;Description:Mouse Anti-Paired Box 8 Monoclonal Antibody;Host Species:Mouse;Species Reactivity:Human;Clone#:BC23;Isotype:IgG1;Application:IHC;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and freeze at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles;Usage:For Lab Research Use Only;
