Short Description
Ensure consistent FABP5 staining with this pre-prepared IHC kit, supplying reagents tailored for efficient, start-to-finish staining.
Description
FABP5, also named PA-FABP and E-FABP, belongs to the calycin superfamily and the Fatty-acid binding protein (FABP) family. It has high specificity for fatty acids, particularly those with C18 chain length. It may be involved in keratinocyte differentiation. FABP5 is expressed in the epidermis and endothelial cells of the microvasculature of different organs. It has also been identified as a tumor-associated antigen, which is highly expressed in various cancers. FABP5 was detected in the sera of HNSCC patients with early-stage cancer. Antibodies specific for FABP5 were significantly increased in a substantial number of patients, suggesting that FABP5 may be a potential diagnostic biomarker for HNSCC and may serve as a biomarker for HNSCC.
