CDX2<br />

Clone AMT28<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0535 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

CDX2 is a caudal-type homeobox, intestine-specific transcription factor that<br />

is expressed early in intestinal development and may be involved in the<br />

regulation of proliferation and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells.<br />

CDX2, as well as CDX1, is of particular interest as the intestine is the only<br />

organ that contains detectable levels of either gene product.<br />

CDX2 is primarily expressed on the surface of the villus and in the crypts. In<br />

contrast to CDX1, intense CDX2 expression is reported to occur in all but the<br />

distal portions of the developing intestine. The loss of CDX2 has been reported<br />

to contribute towards the progression of some sporadic colorectal cancers<br />

and CDX2 may also be associated with carcinogenesis of the stomach, as<br />

expression of CDX2 mRNA progressively decreases with the transition from<br />

well differentiated to poorly differentiated gastric cancer cell lines.<br />

Chromogranin A<br />

Clone 5H7<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0430 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

Chromogranin A is a 68 kD acidic protein that is reported to be widely<br />

expressed in neural tissues and in secretory granules of human endocrine<br />

cells; eg parathyroid gland, adrenal medulla, anterior pituitary gland, islet<br />

cells of the pancreas and C cells of the thyroid. Chromogranin A expression<br />

has been reported in neuroendocrine tumors such as pituitary adenomas,<br />

islet cell tumors, phaeochromocytomas, medullary thyroid carcinomas,<br />

Merkel cell tumors and carcinoids.<br />

Product Specific Information<br />

Bond ready-to-use Chromogranin A (5H7) is recommended for use as part of<br />

a panel of antibodies for the identification of tumors of neuroendocrine origin.<br />

Also available as a Novocastra concentrate, refer to page 91.<br />

Cytokeratin 5<br />

Clone XM26<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0468 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

Cytokeratin 5 is closely related to Cytokeratin 6 and shares a similar tissue<br />

distribution. The antigen is found in various proportions in many nonkeratinizing<br />

stratified squamous and basal epithelia and epitheliomas.<br />

Product Specific Information<br />

Cytokeratin 5 (XM26) is recommended for the detection of Cytokeratin 5 in<br />

normal and neoplastic tissues, especially in squamous cell carcinomas and,<br />

when used as part of a panel of antibodies, for the distinction of<br />

mesotheliomas from most adenocarcinomas.<br />

Also available as a Novocastra concentrate, refer to page 95.<br />

Cytokeratin 7<br />

Clone RN7<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0942 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

Cytokeratin 7 is reported to be expressed in specific subtypes of<br />

adenocarcinoma from ovary breast and lung whereas adenocarcinomas<br />

from the gastrointestinal tract are negative.<br />

Product Specific Information<br />

Clone RN7 is recommended for use as part of an antibody panel in the<br />

differential diagnosis of carcinomas.<br />
