Description: Ki67 antigen is a nuclear, non-histone protein that is present in all stages of the cell cycle except G0. This characteristic makes Ki67 an excellent marker for proliferating cells and is commonly used as one of the prognostic factors in cancer studies. A correlation has been demonstrated between Ki67 index and the histo-pathological grade of neoplasms. Assessment of Ki67 expression in renal and ureter tumors shows a correlation between tumor proliferation and disease progression, thus making it possible to differentiate high-risk patients. Ki-67 expression may also prove to be important for distinguishing between malignant and benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Ki67 labeling index has been shown to be a prognostic marker in a number of neoplasms including grade II astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, colon carcinoma, and breast carcinoma. In general, Ki67 is a good marker of proliferating cell populations.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 2293-2478 was used as the immunogen for the Ki-67 antibody.
Storage: Store the Ki-67 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
