Desmoglein-3

    Dermatopathology
    ZR128 Rabbit Monoclonal

    Recognizes a protein of 130kDa, identified as Desmoglein-3 (DSG3). This MAb is particular to Desmoglein-3 and does not cross-react with other members of the Desmoglein family. DSG3 is a calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein component of desmosomes in vertebrate epithelial cells. Research has shown that DSG3 has a very high sensitivity (80%) and specificity (100%) in recognizing squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC). Therefore, DSG3 is considered an important marker for lung SqCC and can be a useful ancillary marker to separate SqCC from other subtypes of lung cancer. Moreover, studies have shown that DSG3 expression in lung SqCC may indicate a poor prognosis.
