The PTGS2/CCP1 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human PTGS2 gene located on chromosome band 1q31.1, along with the number of chromosome 1 copies per cell.
Abnormal expression of the PTGS2 gene – also known as COX2, COX-2, PHS-2, PGG/HS, PGHS-2, hCox-2 or GRIPGHS – has been observed in colorectal, lung, uterine, ovarian, pancreatic and many other tumor types.
