CD44 antigen (CD44) is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the CD44 family of cell adhesion molecules, widely expressed on epithelial and hematopoietic cells where it mediates interactions with hyaluronic acid and regulates cell survival, adhesion, and microenvironmental signaling. CD44v9 Antibody for IHC Cervical Cancer is designed to detect the variant 9-containing isoform of CD44 in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, supporting immunohistochemistry-based evaluation of cervical carcinoma and related epithelial malignancies. CD44v9 expression is frequently observed in malignant epithelial cells, where it contributes to tumor cell adaptation within the cervical tumor microenvironment, particularly under conditions of metabolic and oxidative stress.
CD44 antibody, also known as CD44 antigen antibody, CD44 variant 9 antibody, CD44v9 IHC antibody, or Hermes antigen antibody, recognizes alternatively spliced isoforms with distinct biological functions, with CD44v9 specifically associated with cellular defense mechanisms against oxidative stress. In cervical carcinoma, CD44v9 expression has been linked to stabilization of membrane transport systems involved in redox balance, supporting intracellular glutathione maintenance and protection against reactive oxygen species. Recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody clone rCD44v9/1459 is designed to detect CD44v9 with specificity in tissue sections, enabling visualization of tumor cell populations that exhibit enhanced resistance to oxidative injury.
Functionally, CD44v9 contributes to tumor cell survival by promoting resistance to environmental and therapeutic stressors, including hypoxia and treatment-induced oxidative damage. Its expression is often enriched in subsets of carcinoma cells that persist under adverse conditions, reflecting a role in sustaining malignant populations during disease progression. In immunohistochemistry applications, CD44v9 staining typically presents as a membranous pattern in carcinoma cells, allowing clear visualization of tumor architecture and identification of stress-adapted subpopulations within cervical tumor tissue. This CD44v9 Antibody for IHC Cervical Cancer is particularly suited for examining tumor cell survival pathways and adaptive responses in epithelial malignancies.
Beyond oxidative stress regulation, CD44v9 also participates in adhesion-mediated signaling and tumor-microenvironment interactions that support continued tumor growth and persistence. Its localization at the cell surface facilitates engagement with extracellular matrix components and coordination of intracellular signaling pathways relevant to tumor maintenance. Detection of CD44v9 expression in cervical carcinoma tissue provides insight into the biological state of tumor cells and their capacity to withstand metabolic and oxidative challenges within the tumor microenvironment.
Structurally, CD44 is encoded on chromosome 11p13 and consists of an extracellular ligand-binding domain, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic tail that interacts with cytoskeletal and signaling proteins. The variant 9 sequence arises through alternative splicing within the extracellular domain, imparting isoform-specific functional properties related to stress response and cell survival. CD44 isoforms are broadly expressed but show context-dependent regulation, with CD44v9 being enriched in tumor cell populations exhibiting adaptive and stress-resistant phenotypes. An antibody targeting CD44v9 is suitable for detecting variant-specific expression in cervical carcinoma and related research applications involving oxidative stress and tumor biology.
This CD44v9 antibody is part of a broader CD44 antibody panel offered by NSJ Bioreagents.
The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the CD44v9 Antibody for IHC Cervical Cancer / Oxidative Stress Defense Marker 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.
An amino acid sequence from the variant 9 domain of CD44 was used as the immunogen for the recombinant CD44v9 antibody.
Store the CD44v9 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
