Cyclin D1 Antibody [DCS-6]

Product Specifications

Background

This antibody recognizes a protein of 36kDa, identified as Cyclin D1. It is a putative proto-oncogene overexpressed in a wide variety of human neoplasms and a key cell cycle regulator. This antibody neutralizes the activity of Cyclin D1 in vivo. About 60% of mantle cell lymphomas (MCL) contain a t (11; 14) (q13; q32) translocation resulting in over-expression. Cyclin D1 antibody is useful in identifying mantle cell lymphomas, which stain positive, from CLL/SLL and follicular lymphomas, which stain negative. Occasionally, hairy cell leukemia and plasma cell myeloma weakly express Cyclin D1.

Applications Notes

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes. 2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
