Product Description
Anti-IDH1 (Hu) aus Ratte (W09), IgG2a, Unconjugated, Monoclonal
Reactivity
Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is an important enzyme in the citric acid cycle and catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate and CO2 while converting NAD+ to NADH. Heterozygous point mutations of IDH1 codon 132 are frequent in World Health Organization (WHO) grade II and III gliomas. IDH1 R132H mutations occur in approximately 70% of astrocytomas and oligodendroglial tumors. Mouse antibody clone H09 (product number #DIA-H09) reacts specifically with the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) R132H point mutation in tissue sections from formalin-fixed brain tumor specimens. Therefore this antibody is highly useful for tumor classification. Rat antibody clone W09 detects both wild type (wt) and point mutated IDH1 in glioblastoma (anti-pan-IDH1) and serves as control for the IDH1 point mutation specific mouse antibody clone H09. Moreover, Tan et al. (Mol Cell Proteomics, 2011) have identified IDH1 as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for Non-small-cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). These findings suggest that anti-IDH1wt antibody could be used as a histochemical biomarker for prognosis prediction of NSCLC.
