All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project
(www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. To view these

Allgemeine Beschreibung
STC1 (stanniocalcin 1) is a hypocalcemic hormone, which is produced and released by corpuscles of Stannius (CS), an endocrine gland found in bony fish. It is a glycoprotein and in humans, it is widely expressed such as in heart, lung, adrenal gland, liver, kidney, spleen, ovary, prostate, bone and colon.
Biochem/physiol Actions
STC1 (stanniocalcin 1) is responsible for calcium homeostasis in mammals. However, unlike its counterpart in fishes, it functions in a paracrine/autocrine manner in mammals. Studies in mice show that this hormone is primarily involved in carcinogenesis and inflammatory processes in mammals. This gene is significantly up-regulated in human lung, breast, ovary, liver, pancreas, and colon cancer samples. It decreases the size of tumor in HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma) due to its pro-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory actions. Thus, it might have potential therapeutic functions in patients with inflammatory tumors in HCC. Silencing of this gene in ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) resulted in prevention of cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis, whereas suppression of this gene resulted in inhibition of EMT (epithelial-mesenchymal transition).
