Mouse polyclonal Human Napsin A antibody Background: A new protein isolated by two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresi
s from tissue of lung adenocarcinoma was identified as Napsin A, a new aspartic Proteinase. The reactivity of the antibody showed immunohistochemicall
y in type II pneumocytes, alveolar macrophages, renal tubules and exocrine glands and ducts in pancreas. In particular, type II pneumocytes and alveolar macrophages showed strong staining. The specificity of the antibody is very interesting, in primary lung adenocarcinoma, 47 out of 58 (81.0%) primary lesions tested positive for napsin A. All well-differentiated adenocarcinoma except those of goblet type showed strong staining.
