Short Decsription
This product is a ready-to-use IHC kit for staining of Podocalyxin. The kit provides all reagents, from antigen retrieval to cover slip mounting, that require little to no diluting or handling prior to use. Simply apply the reagents to your sample slide according to the protocol and you're steps away from obtaining high-quality IHC data.
Description
Podocalyxin, also known as podocalyxin-like protein 1 (PODXL or PCLP1), is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the CD34 family of sialomucins. Podocalyxin was originally identified as the major sialoprotein on podocytes of the kidney glomerulus, but was later found to be expressed on vascular endothelial cells and early hematopoietic progenitors. It Involved in the regulation of both adhesion and cell morphology. In addition, podocalyxin is highly expressed in embryonic stem cells and aberrant expression of podocalyxin has been implicated in a wide range of cancers.
