Product Specifications
Immunogen
This MUC2 Antibody (996/1) was developed against MUC2 tandem repeat peptide
Reactivity Notes
Please note that this antibody is reactive to Mouse and derived from the same host, Mouse. Mouse-On-Mouse blocking reagent may be needed for IHC and ICC experiments to reduce high background signal. You can find these reagents under catalog numbers PK-2200-NB and MP-2400-NB. Please contact Technical Support if you have any questions. Mouse reactivity reported in scientific literature (PMID: 24045942).
Localization
Secreted
Specificity
MUC2 Antibody (996/1) recognizes the human MUC2 mucin, and shows no cross-reactivity with MUC1, MUC3 or MUC4 mucins. In tissue sections colon, liver and prostate stain strongly. It recognizes malignant colonic mucosa and normal mucosa.

Background: MUC2
Changes or perturbations to MUC2 expression has been associated with a number of disease pathologies (1-4, 6). Specifically, altered MUC2 composition has been indicated in colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including ulcerative colitis and Chron's disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (1-4, 6). In general, decreased or reduced MUC2 expression is associated with colorectal cancer disease progression and development of IBD (1-4, 6). Additionally, studies have found that upon intestinal infection due to parasites or bacteria MUC2 expression is increased, as is overall mucus secretion (3, 6).
