Primary Antibodies<br />

Prostatic Acid Phosphatase<br />

Clone PASE/4LJ<br />

1 mL liquid NCL-L-PAP FP<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0006 P (HIER)<br />

Prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) is an isoenzyme of acid phosphatase<br />

found in large amounts in the prostate and seminal fluid. The precise<br />

function of PAP is unknown, but it may act as a hydrolase to split phosphoryl<br />

choline in semen and also function as a transferase. Elevated serum levels<br />

of the enzyme are reported in metastatic prostatic carcinoma.<br />

(PASE/4LJ) using Bond Polymer Refine Detection.<br />

Prostatic Inhibin Peptide<br />

Clone 4A6A6<br />

1 mL lyophilized NCL-PIP P<br />

Prostatic inhibin peptide (PIP), a 10.7 kD follicle stimulating hormone<br />

suppressing molecule, is synthesized and secreted by the prostate gland.<br />

PIP has been reported to be expressed in primary prostatic tumors and their<br />

metastases. PIP has also been reported to be expressed in the serum and<br />

urine of patients with prostatic cancer. PIP expression is unaffected by<br />

reduced or absent androgens unlike both PSA and PAP whose expression is<br />

dependent on androgens.<br />

Protein Gene Product 9.5<br />

Clone 10A1<br />

1 mL, 0.1 mL lyophilized NCL-PGP9.5 F P (HIER) W<br />

1 mL liquid NCL-L-PGP9.5 F P (HIER) W<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0286 P (HIER)<br />

Protein gene product (PGP) 9.5 is a neuron specific protein, structurally and<br />

immunologically distinct from neuron specific enolase. The protein which<br />

has a molecular weight of 27 kD was first identified by high resolution two<br />

dimensional PAGE. PGP9.5 expression has been reported in neurons and<br />

nerve fibers at all levels of the central and peripheral nervous system, in<br />

many neuroendocrine cells, in segments of the renal tubules, in<br />

spermatogonia and Leydig cells of the testis, in ova and in some cells of both<br />

the pregnant and non-pregnant corpus luteum. PGP9.5 is known to be a<br />

member of the ubiquitin C-terminal hydroxylase family and is also<br />

concentrated within inclusion bodies suggesting that such structures may<br />

be metabolically active regions of the cells.<br />

pS2 Protein<br />

Polyclonal<br />

0.5 mL lyophilized NCL-pS2 FP<br />

pS2, also known as pNR-2, was first identified by differential screening of<br />

cDNA libraries from estrogen responsive breast cancer cell lines. In normal<br />

tissue, pS2 protein is reported to be expressed in gastric mucosa, small<br />

intestinal mucosa and normal breast epithelium. pS2 is estrogen regulated in<br />

breast cancer cell lines and may have some g<strong>row</strong>th factor activity. In<br />

malignant epithelial tumors, pS2 has been reported to be expressed in<br />

gastric carcinomas and gynecological cancers. The pS2 mRNA and protein<br />

are expressed predominantly in estrogen receptor positive breast cancers.<br />
