About this Product

SKU:: 1082-MSM4-P0
Application:: Immunohistochemistry
translate.label.attr.clone:: HCGb/54+ HCGb/459
Clonality:: Monoclonal
Extra Details:: This MAb reacts with a protein of 22kDa; identified as beta sub-unit of HCG. It does not cross react with the alpha sub-unit. HCG is a glycoprotein; which is secreted in large quantities by normal trophoblasts. It is present only in trace amounts in non-pregnant urine and sera but rises sharply during pregnancy. HCG is composed of two non-identical; non-covalently linked polypeptide chains designated as the subunit is identical to that of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) follicle stimulating hormone (FSH); and luteinizing hormone (LH). hCG MAb detects cells and tumors of trophoblastic origin such as choriocarcinoma. Large cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the lung demonstrate anti-hCG positivity in 90% and 60% of cases respectively. 20% of lung squamous cell carcinomas are positive. hCG expression by non-trophoblastic tumors may indicate aggressive behavior.
