Biochem/physiol Actions

Human steroid sulfatase (STS) plays a crucial role in regulating the formation of biologically active estrogens. The gene expression is induced by insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II through a PI3-kinase/Akt-NF-κB signaling pathway in PC-3 cells. It may induce estrogen production and estrogen-mediated carcinogenesis. The gene may act as a promising target for treating estrogen-mediated carcinogenesis. STS expression can be decreased in the process of large intestinal carcinogenesis. Sodium butyrate (NaBu) may also increase its expression in CRC (colorectal carcinoma) cells.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
