| Product Name: |
Recombinant Human CA125/MUC16 (Gly12660-Met12923) Protein, His&Avi-tagged, Biotinylated |
| Description: |
MUC16, also known as the CA125 antigen, is a mucin protein that may be found in type I transmembrane or secreted forms that are used monitor the progress of epithelial ovarian cancer therapy. Thought to provide a protective, lubricating barrier against particles and infectious agents at mucosal surfaces. Binding to MSLN mediates heterotypic cell adhesion. This may contribute to the metastasis of ovarian cancer to the peritoneum by initiating cell attachment to the mesothelial epithelium via binding to MSLN. |
