Immunogen
The original antibody was raised by immunization of mice with the PAM4 antigen.
Application Notes
This antibody was used for immunohistochemistry on normal adult tissues and neoplastic tissues. This yielded no to weak staining in normal tissue and stronger staining in 85% of the neoplastic tissue (US7238786). ELISA was performed on blood serum of healthy humans, pancreatic cancer patients, pancreatitis patients, ovarian cancer patients and breast cancer patients (US7238786). This antibody was used to treat mice that were given the CaPanl tumor. The animals showed regression of tumor (US7238786). ELISA was performed on blood sera of cancer patients using this antibody (Gold et al, 2005; pmid:16344318). Immunohistochemistry was performed on 63 PanIN and 36 IPMN lesions using this antibody (Gold et al, 2007; pmid:18094420). Flow cytometry was performed on the cell lines: RPMI 8226, U266, MC/CAR JJN-3, KMS12-BM, KMS 12-PE, DUL4, MUC1, breast carcinoma cell lines, MCF7, MDA-MB468, T47D, ZR-75-30, and a pancreatic carcinoma cell line, CaPan-1. This was done using this antibody (Burton et al, 1999; pmid:10541345). A western blot was performed using this antibody (Burton et al, 1999; pmid:10541345).
