Carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9) serves as a compelling marker in cancer biology, where its expression is tightly regulated by hypoxia-inducible factors and becomes dramatically upregulated in solid tumors experiencing low oxygen conditions. This membrane-associated enzyme, also recognized as the G250 renal cell carcinoma-associated antigen, plays a critical role in pH regulation within the tumor microenvironment, making it an attractive target for researchers investigating tumor hypoxia, metabolic adaptation, and potential therapeutic interventions.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 4F12, offers the reproducibility that demanding research protocols require. Generated through recombinant technology with a defined sequence, this rabbit IgG delivers the lot-to-lot consistency essential for longitudinal studies and multi-site collaborations where experimental variability must be minimized. The antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide derived from human CA9 and undergoes affinity chromatography purification to ensure high specificity.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable performance in immunohistochemistry applications on human tissue samples. Testing on paraffin-embedded human gastric cancer and liver cancer specimens using a Leica Bond system with citrate buffer antigen retrieval at pH 6.0 confirms robust detection at 1:118 dilution, with recommended working dilutions ranging from 1:50 to 1:200. The antibody is also validated for ELISA applications, providing flexibility across different experimental workflows.
For investigators studying tumor hypoxia markers, cancer metabolism, or developing diagnostic approaches for renal cell carcinoma and other malignancies where CA9 expression correlates with disease progression, this antibody provides a dependable tool backed by documented performance in clinically relevant tissue types.
