Background:
Detection of mammaglobin in metastatic mamma carcinoma, differential diagnosis of metastases in sentinel lymph nodes Mammaglobin A is a breast gland associated glycoprotein, distantly related to the secretoglobin family including human Uteroglobin and Lipophilins. Unlike other secretoglobin family members Mammaglobin mRNA seems to be Mamma-specific (exception skin). Mammaglobin has been detected by immunohistochemical approach in intact breast tissue as well as in adenocarcinoma. It seems to be up-regulated in cancer tissues. The monoclonal antibody is suitable for the detection of occult mamma carcinoma cells in sentinel lymph nodes and in peripheral blood. The overall sensitivity of mammaglobin detection on paraffin sections of mamma carcinoma was reported to be >80% (Fanger et al. 2002; Han et al. 2003). 10 KDa Mammaglobin from human breast tissue, no cross-reactivity with mammaglobin B, lipophilin and uteroglobin.
Caution:
*These antibodies are intended for in vitro research use only. They must not be used for clinical diagnostics and not for in vivo experiments in humans or animals.
** The preservative sodium azide is known to be poisonous and potentially hazardous to health. It should be handled only by trained staff. Despite of the product's low azide concentration it must be handled with care. Dispose according to regional rules!

Immunogen:
C-terminal 16 aa peptide sequence of human mammaglobin coupled to KLH as a carrier protein
Incubation Time:
60 min at RT
Positive Control:
Mamma carcinoma (normal mamma shows up lower expression of the protein), skin sweat glands
Pre-Treatment:
Formalin-fixed tissue may be pre-treated for 30 min at 100°C with Unmasking Solution C (Citrate buffer Art. No. DE000), E (buffered EDTA Art. No. DE006) or G (Glycol based solution Art. No. DE007) preferably in a pressure cooker.
