Invitrogen™ CD138 Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (017), FITC

Rabbit Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ MA546735

Catalog No. PIMA546735

Description

Preparation: This antibody was obtained from a rabbit immunized with purified, recombinant Human CD138 (Syndecan-1) (Met1-Glu251) and conjugated with FITC under optimum conditions, the unreacted FITC was removed. Storage: This antibody can be stored at 2C-8C for twelve months without detectable loss of activity. Protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze! Sodium azide is toxic to cells and should be disposed of properly. Flush with large volumes of water during disposal.

CD138 (syndecan 1) is a transmembrane proteoglycan that can bind a variety of cytokines and modulate their activity, as well as the activity of extracellular matrix components and influence many developmental processes. CD138 is expressed mainly in differentiating keratinocytes and is transiently upregulated in all layers of the epidermis upon tissue injury. It is also highly expressed on plasma cells and can be detected even on fibroblasts, vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Up-regulation and down-regulation of CD138 on the cell surface often correlates with the gain of cancerous characteristics. Serum levels of the shedded soluble sCD138 are used as a prognostic factor of cancerogenesis.
