Description: PAX8 is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. This nuclear protein is involved in thyroid follicular cell development and expression of thyroid-specific genes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid follicular carcinomas, and atypical thyroid adenomas. PAX8 is expressed in the thyroid (and associated carcinomas), non-ciliated mucosal cells of the fallopian tubes, and simple ovarian inclusion cysts, but not normal ovarian surface epithelial cells. PAX8 is expressed in a high percentage of ovarian serous, endometrioid, and clear cell carcinomas, but only rarely in primary ovarian mucinous adenocarcinomas. PAX-8 expression is reported in renal tubules as well as renal cell carcinoma, nephroblastoma, and seminoma. PAX8 antibody may be used as an additional immunohistochemical marker for renal epithelial tumors.
Immunogen: A human recombinant fragment (aa 60-261) was used as the immunogen for the PAX8 antibody cocktail.
Storage: Store the PAX8 antibody cocktail at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
