Anti-Ganglioside GD2 [ME361] Antibody

This mouse IgG monoclonal antibody recognizes human ganglioside GD2.

Highlights:

  • Specific for human ganglioside GD2
  • Has low affinity for GD3 a surface marker present on several neuroectodermal tumors including melanoma
  • ME 36.1 has been found to inhibit tumor growth at the inoculation site as well as metastatic spread to lymph nodes and lungs in preclinical studies
  • Suitable for FACS, Immunohistochemistry and Binding Assay applications

Ganglioside GD2, is a sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipid involved in cell attachment to the extracellular matrix. GD2 is overexpressed on neuroblastoma, retinoblastoma, melanoma, small cell lung cancer, brain tumors, osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma tissues. GD2 localizes to the cell surface. GD2 has been shown to enhance tumor proliferation and invasiveness in osteosarcoma and small cell lung cancer cells.
