GTAM5 Marker Antibody (B43.5): sc-59194

GTAM5 Marker Antibody (B43.5) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects GTAM5 of human origin by western blotting (WB), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry. Anti-GTAM5 antibody (B43.5) is available as the non-conjugated form. GTAM5, or gastrointestinal tumor associated marker 5, plays a crucial role in identifying gastric carcinoma, a type of cancer that can arise in any part of the stomach and has the potential to metastasize to other organs, including the esophagus and small intestine. GTAM5 is particularly significant as expressed in the luminal and apical cytoplasm of various cancer cells, including those from pancreatic, lung, colon, and gastric carcinomas. GTAM5 is not only a marker of malignancy but also serves as a potential target for therapeutic interventions, making GTAM5 vital for early diagnosis and treatment strategies. The unique expression pattern of GTAM5 in tumor tissues highlights GTAM5′s importance in distinguishing between benign and malignant conditions, thereby aiding in the development of more effective cancer management approaches.
