Description

MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 is a monoclonal antibody that targets mucin-1, a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells. MUC-1 is heavily glycosylated and plays roles in protecting epithelial barriers, mediating cell adhesion, and modulating signaling pathways. In healthy tissues, MUC-1 expression is polarized, while in cancers it becomes overexpressed and loses apical restriction, contributing to tumor invasion and metastasis. NSJ Bioreagents provides MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 as a trusted reagent for studies in cancer biology, immunology, and epithelial physiology.

MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 produces strong membranous and cytoplasmic staining in glandular epithelial tissues, such as breast, pancreas, and gastrointestinal tract. In pathology, clone MUC1/955 is commonly used as a marker for adenocarcinomas, including breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers. Its detection provides important diagnostic information, as aberrant MUC-1 expression correlates with tumor progression, poor prognosis, and metastatic potential.

In cancer research, MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 has been employed to study how tumor-associated MUC-1 differs structurally and functionally from normal epithelial MUC-1. The altered glycosylation of tumor MUC-1 creates novel epitopes, making it a target for immunotherapy. Studies using clone MUC1/955 have contributed to vaccine development, monoclonal antibody therapies, and CAR T cell approaches aimed at targeting tumor-associated MUC-1.

Beyond oncology, MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 supports investigations into epithelial defense mechanisms. MUC-1 modulates interactions with pathogens, including viruses and bacteria, and its detection has been used to clarify how mucins contribute to innate immunity at mucosal surfaces.

In reproductive biology, MUC-1 antibody clone MUC1/955 has been applied to uterine and embryonic studies, as MUC-1 expression at the endometrium regulates implantation. Altered MUC-1 dynamics in fertility disorders highlight its broader role in human physiology.

This antibody is validated for tissue and cell-based studies, delivering reproducible results in both normal and diseased tissues. Alternate names include epithelial membrane antigen antibody, episialin antibody, and carcinoma-associated mucin antibody.

Application Notes

The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the MUC-1 antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.

>1. 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.

Immunogen

Human milk fat globule membranes were used as the immunogen for this MUC-1 antibody.

Storage

Store the MUC-1 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
