Bond<br />

Oct-2<br />

Clone Oct-207<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0532 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

Oct-2 is a transcription factor belonging to the POU homeo-domain family<br />

that binds to the Ig gene octamer sites regulating B cell specific genes. It is<br />

dependent on the activity of B cell restricted coactivators such as BOB-1/<br />

OBF-1. Reed Sternberg (RS) cells represent the malignant cells in classical<br />

Hodgkin's disease and are derived from germinal center B cells. In a number<br />

of these cases, cells do not express immunoglobulin due to the presence of<br />

crippling mutations within the Ig genes. As Ig gene expression in B cells also<br />

requires an interaction between octamer sites and the transactivating<br />

factors Oct-2 and BOB.1, the absence of both Oct-2 and BOB-1 expression<br />

represents a novel mechanism for immunoglobulin gene deregulation in RS<br />

cells. Oct-2 protein expression is not restricted to B cells, although<br />

expression levels are much higher in these cells. Germinal center B cells<br />

show higher expression for Oct-2 and BOB-1/OBF-1. Oct-2 expression is<br />

reported to be significantly greater in germinal center derived lymphomas,<br />

although other B cell lymphomas also display high levels of expression.<br />

Oct 3/4<br />

Clone N1NK New!<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0934 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

Oct3/4 is a member of the POU homeodomain family of transcription factors,<br />

which is expressed by embryonic stem cells and germ cells. A critical<br />

amount of Oct3/4 levels are associated with loss of pluripotency. Oct3/4 has<br />

been proposed as a useful marker for germ cell tumors which exhibit<br />

features of pluripotentiality, including seminoma/dysgerminoma and<br />

embryonal carcinoma, and establishing a germ cell origin for some<br />

metastatic tumors of uncertain primary tumor.<br />

p53 Protein<br />

Clone DO-7<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0057 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

p53 protein plays a vital role in suppressing the development of cancer. The<br />

accumulation of p53 protein in response to DNA damage in vitro is well<br />

established and appears to induce g<strong>row</strong>th arrest and apoptosis by the<br />

transcriptional regulation of other genes.<br />

Product Specific Information<br />

This monoclonal antibody recognizes both wild type and mutant forms of<br />

human p53 protein. Bond ready-to-use p53 (DO7) is recommended for<br />

determining the p53 status of a variety of carcinomas, including breast and<br />

colorectal carcinomas.<br />

p63<br />

Clone 7JUL<br />

7 mL Bond ready-to-use PA0478 P (HIER)<br />

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use<br />

p63 is a type II integral membrane protein predominantly localized in the rough<br />

endoplasmic reticulum. p63 is reported to be expressed in a number of normal<br />

tissues including proliferating cells of the epithelium, cervix, urothelium and<br />

prostate. p63 is reported to be expressed in most poorly differentiated<br />

squamous cell carcinomas.<br />

Also available as a Novocastra concentrate, refer to page 72.<br />
