Short Decsription
This product is a ready-to-use IHC kit for staining of MCL1. The kit provides all reagents, from antigen retrieval to cover slip mounting, that require little to no diluting or handling prior to use. Simply apply the reagents to your sample slide according to the protocol and you're steps away from obtaining high-quality IHC data.
Description
MCL-1 is an anti-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family originally isolated from the ML-1 human myeloid leukemia cell line. Similar to BCL2 and BCL2L1, MCL1 can interact with BAX and/or BAK1 to inhibit mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. Mcl-1 is critical for the proliferation and survival of myeloma cells in vitro, and overexpression of Mcl-1 protein in myeloma cells is associated with relapse and short event-free survival in multiple myeloma patients. Recent studies show that MCL-1 is upregulated in numerous haematological and solid tumour malignancies. Therefore, MCL-1 has been suggested as a potential new therapeutic target.
