MCAM (also termed CD146 or MUC18) is a cell-adhesion molecule belonging to the immunoglobulin gene superfamily.
It mediates cell-cell interaction through heterophilic Mel-CAM/ligand adhesion.
MCAM has been shown to expressed widely in normal and neoplastic human tissues.
MUC18 expression is increased during prostate cancer initiation (high grade PIN) and progression to carcinoma, and in metastatic cell lines and metastatic carcinoma.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunofluorescence.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Immunofluorescence: 10ug/mlOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
