Anti-CD82 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated

CD82 (Cluster of Differentiation 82), also named KAI1, is a protein that in humans encoded by the CD82 gene. The gene is mapped to 11p11.2. This metastasis suppressor gene product is a membrane glycoprotein that is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily. Expression of this gene has been shown to be downregulated in tumor progression of human cancers and can be activated by p53 through a consensus binding sequence in the promoter. The expression of CD82 protein appears to be correlated with lymph node metastasis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) . And the CD82 overexpression can suppress tumor invasiveness and metastatic potential by inducing MMP9 inactivation via upregulation of TIMP1.
