Scientific Data Images for Ki67/MKI67 Antibody (5F86)

Western Blot: Ki67/MKI67 Antibody [NBP3-05537]

Western Blot: Ki67/MKI67 Antibody [NBP3-05537]

Western Blot: Ki67/MKI67 Antibody [NBP3-05537] - Western blot analysis of equal amounts of cell lysates using Ki67/MKI67 Antibody at a dilution of 1:10,000, (green): [1] protein standard (red), [2] rapidly growing HeLa cell cultures, [3] rapidly growing HEK293 cell cultures. Strong double bands larger than the 250kDa standard correspond to full length 345kDa and 395kDa Ki67/MKI67 isoforms, while smaller proteolytic fragments of these isoforms are also invariably detected on the blot.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Ki67/MKI67 Antibody [NBP3-05537]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Ki67/MKI67 Antibody [NBP3-05537] - Immunofluorescent analysis of HeLa cells stained with Ki67/MKI67 Antibody at a dilution of 1:5,000 in red, and mouse monoclonal antibody to fibrillarin at a dilution of 1:2,000, in green. The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. The Ki67/MKI67 protein accumulates in and around the nucleoli of interphase cells such as those on the right, and the nucleoli are revealed by the fibrillarin antibody. In contrast, cells in the quiescent G0 state such as those on the left are Ki67/MKI67 negative but fibrillarin positive.

Background: Ki67/MKI67

Ki67 is a nuclear protein associated with proliferation, named after its discovery in a Hodgkin's lymphoma-derived cell line by Scholzer and Gerdes at Kiel University, Germany (1). This proliferation marker is expressed during active phases of the cell cycle (late G1, S, G2 and M), whereas the protein remains undetectable in the G0 phase. Ki67 has two main isoforms with theoretical molecular weights of 319 kDa and 359 kDa. Its abundance is tightly regulated by synthesis and degradation with an estimated half-life of 60-90 min, regardless of its position in the cell cycle. Ki67 has been shown to be involved in ribosomal biogenesis, heterochromatin maintenance, and mitotic chromosome separation (2).

Detection of Ki67 by immunostaining is commonly used as a proliferation marker in solid tumors, as well as certain hematological malignancies (3-5). The Ki67 index, which reports on positive Ki67 stained tumor cell nuclei, has been extensively studied as a prognostic biomarker in cancers such as breast cancer and cervical cancer.
