| Maspin or mammary-specific serpin is a tumor suppressor protein of serine proteinase inhibitor family. Its transcription is regulated in combinatorial fashion by Ets, p53 and AP-1. It is present in normal breast and prostatic epithelial cells but downregulated in the respective carcinomas. The extent of downregulation correlates with the progression of the carcinoma and may help in prognosis. Maspin has the ability to block the growth, invasiveness, and metastatic potential of breast and lung tumors. This anti-tumor activity is achieved, in part, by the ability of Maspin to inhibit angiogenesis and to preferentially promote apoptosis of tumor cells. | | | Catalog # | M2412-50B | | Applications | Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blotting, Inhibition Assays.
