| Clone: |
same as HepPar-1, OCH1E5 |
| Host organism: |
Mouse (Mus musculus) |
| Species reactivity: |
Dog, Due to limited knowledge and inability for testing each and every species, Others not known, the reactivity of the antibody may extend to other species which are not listed hereby, Human (Homo sapiens) |
| Specificity and cross-reactivity: |
HCC's occur primarily in the stomach, Hepatocyte Specific Antigen is also found in gastric carcinomas as well as in a few other non-hepatic tumors, It is a sensitive marker for distinguishing hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) from other metastatic carcinomas as well as cholangio-carcinomas, Occasionally, Reportedly, Since it is not possible to test each and every species our knowledge on the corss reactivity of the antibodies is limited, The Hepatocyte Specific Antigen may also be a useful marker for intestinal metaplasia, This particular antibody might cross react with speacies outside of the listed ones, also called Hepatocyte Paraffin 1 or Hep Par 1, but they are also found in many other organs, localizes to the mitochondria of hepatocytes, strong expression of the Hepatocyte Specific Antigen correlates with smaller tumor size and longer patient survival, Hepatocyte Specific Antigen |
