Somatostatin [H11]
Description Somatostatin is a peptide hormone that regulates the endocrine system and affects neurotransmission and cell proliferation via interaction with G-protein-coupled somatostatin receptors and inhibition of the release of numerous secondary hormones. This hormone has two active forms produced by alternative cleavage of a single preproprotein: somatostatin-14, composed of 14 amino acids and somatostatin-28, a prohormone composed of 28 residues. Somatostatin is secreted by D-cells of the islets of Langerhans in pancreas, endocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract, bronchopulmonary system, thymus, and C cells of the thyroid. Somatostatin positive cells may also be present in medullary thyroid carcinomas, C cell hyperplasia, thymic tumors and pulmonary small cell carcinomas. An antibody to Somatostatin can be used to identify pancreatic islet cell hyperplasia as well as islet cell tumors, such as somatostatinomas.

SOX2 [SOX2/1791]
Description Anti-SOX2 recognizes lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Extensive anti-SOX-2 staining is seen in over 90% of LSCC and largely parallels p63 expression. However, only 4.5% of lung adenocarcinoma (LACA) is positive for SOX-2. In a study by Sholl et al, 29% of LACA cases exhibited at least focal p63 expression. Combined p63 and SOX-2 expression was seen in 94% of LSCC and 12% of LACA with a statistically significant difference (P<0.0001) versus p63 alone. Anti-CK 5&6 had a good sensitivity but poor specificity for LSCC. Combined anti-CK 5&6 and anti-p63 positivity was seen in 93% of LSCC and 24% of LACA. Anti-CK 5&6+/ anti-p63+/anti-SOX-2+ was detected in 93% of LSCC and only 9% of LACA. These results indicate that the sensitivity of anti-p63 is equally high but its specificity is similarly variable; it was seen at least focally in close to 30% of LACA. When used together, anti-p63+/anti-SOX-2+ applied to the same tumor cell population is >90% specific for LSCC.

Substance P [SP-DE4-21]
Description Substance P (SP) is an active peptide, known as a Tachykinin, that affects diverse functions including blood pressure regulation, peristalsis of the gut, salivation and the modulation of cellular immunity. Fragments of Substance P have differential binding capacities for Substance P receptors and have varying biological activities. Substance P, Neurokinin A, Neuropeptide K, and Neuropeptide gamma are all generated by post-translation cleavage of the precursor Protachykinin-1. Substance P forms the major endogenous ligand for Neurokinin 1 Receptor. The pharmacology of Substance P has been associated with a number of neurological and psychiatric disorders, namely nociception, migraine, asthma, nausea, inflammatory bowel syndrome, urinary incontinence, anxiety and depression. It has also been linked to obesity. (Shipping Cost: €200.00) Host Mouse Application ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Reactivity Human, Mouse, Rat -
Superoxide Dismutase 1/SOD1 [MD11]
Description Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) or CuZn-SOD (SOD1), a cytoplasmic and mitochondrial intermembrane space protein is located on human chromosome 21q22. It belongs to superoxide dismutase multigene family. It binds copper and zinc ions and is one of two isozymes responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. This isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally-occuring but harmful superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The other isozyme is a mitochondrial protein. Mutations in this gene have been implicated as causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rare transcript variants have been reported for this gene.

Survivin [D8]
Description Survivin is a unique member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) protein family that interferes with post-mitochondrial events including activation of caspases. Survivin regulates the cell cycle and is expressed in most tumors, but it is barely detectable in terminally differentiated normal cells and tissues. Survivin is expressed in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. At the beginning of mitosis, survivin associates with microtubules of the mitotic spindle in a specific and saturable reaction that is regulated by microtubule dynamics. Disruption of survivin-microtubule interactions results in loss of survivin's anti-apoptotic function and increased caspase-3 activity, a mechanism involved in cell death during mitosis. Nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of survivin is controlled by nuclear export signal (NES), which is necessary for the anti-apoptotic function of survivin. Inhibition of the NES makes cells more susceptible to chemotherapy- or radiotherapy-induced apoptosis.
