PAX-7 is a mouse monoclonal antibody derived from cell culture supernatant that is concentrated, dialyzed, filter sterilized and diluted in buffer pH7.5, containing BSA and sodium azide as a preservative.
PAX-7 is restricted to muscle satellite and myogenic precursor cells in adults, although it is upregulated in embryonal (ERMS) and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and could suggest a de-differentiated cell type when overexpressed in these tumors. Recent studies suggested that PAX-7 antibody is a novel marker, because it was expressed consistently in Ewing sarcoma, in addition to rhabdomyosarcoma and synovial sarcoma. PAX-7 antibody was found expressed in 90% of Ewing sarcomas (90%), mainly in a diffuse and strong manner. Although NKX2-2 showed similar sensitivity, PAX-7 showed more extensive and strong reactivity. ARMS differs from ERMS by virtue of its occurrence in older patients, distinctive pseudoalveolar pattern, usual absence of strap cells, and strong myogenin rather than MyoD1 expression. Identification of a PAX3 or PAX-7/FKHR fusion gene may be necessary for the confident distinction of ARMS from the most primitive forms of ERMS.

Product Notes
The PAX-7 (Catalog #AAA370509) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PAX-7 (BSB-145) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PAX-7, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
