Description: This antibody recognizes a carbohydrate epitope present on tumor-associated Lewis Y antigen (Fucalpha1-2Galbeta1-4/3[Fucalpha1-3/4]GlcNAcbeta-). Lewis Y is expressed in large bowel tumors and colorectal carcinomas. It may be useful in the classification of human renal and bladder tumors. The Lewis Y antigen has been evaluated as a clinical marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer.
Immunogen: Human colon carcinoma cells were used as the immunogen for the Lewis y antibody.
Storage: Store the Lewis y antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
