SRY-box 10 Antibody recognizes SOX10, a nuclear transcription factor encoded by the SOX10 gene and belonging to the SOX family of DNA-binding proteins. SOX10 contains a conserved HMG-box domain that allows DNA binding and transcriptional regulation of genes essential for neural crest development and differentiation. During embryogenesis, SOX10 is required for the survival and migration of neural crest cells and for their differentiation into melanocytes, Schwann cells, and enteric glial cells. Through regulation of MITF and additional lineage-associated genes, SOX10 supports melanocyte identity and pigmentation pathways. In peripheral nerves, SOX10 participates in Schwann cell differentiation and maintenance of myelin gene expression. In adult tissues, SOX10 expression is largely restricted to melanocytes within the basal layer of the epidermis and hair follicles and to Schwann cells along peripheral nerves. This restricted distribution produces characteristic nuclear staining when using SOX10 antibody in tissue sections. SOX10 has substantial relevance in cancer biology, where it is frequently expressed in melanoma and peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Nuclear SOX10 staining is often used in research to confirm melanocytic differentiation, particularly in tumors with ambiguous morphology. Expression has also been observed in subsets of basal-like breast carcinomas and salivary gland tumors, reflecting shared developmental pathways. Altered SOX10 signaling has been associated with melanoma progression and tumor cell plasticity. SRY-box 10 Antibody targeting SOX10 is suitable for detecting nuclear SOX10 expression in immunohistochemistry and related research applications focused on neural crest biology, pigmentation, and tumor studies.
Optimal dilution of the SRY-box 10/SOX10 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
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.
Amino acids 115-269 from the human protein were used as the immunogen for the SRY-box 10/SOX10 antibody.
Store the SRY-box 10/SOX10 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
