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:
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.

Aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) has been linked to mutations in the KCNJ5 gene encoding the inward-rectifying potassium (K(+)) Kir3.4 channel. These mutations abolish the K(+) selectivity of Kir3.4 and, consequently, cause sodium (Na(+)) leak, depolarized membrane potential, and nonsuppressible aldosterone secretion.

Somatic mutations in KCNJ5 gene have been identified in patients with adrenal aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs). We previously reported that Japanese patients with APAs had distinct characteristics from patients in Western countries; i.e. they had a high frequency of KCNJ5 mutations

Primary aldosteronism accounts for 5%-10% of hypertension and in a third of cases is caused by autonomous aldosterone production by adenomas (APA). Somatic mutations in the potassium channel encoded by KCNJ5 have been detected in surgically removed APAs. To better

Aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) are heterogeneous. The recent finding of somatic KCNJ5 mutations suggests a genetic explanation. The objectives of this study were the following: 1) to compare transcriptional profiles in APA and adjacent adrenal gland (AAG); 2) to test whether

Common somatic mutations in CACNAID and ATP1A1 may define a subgroup of smaller, zona glomerulosa (ZG)-like aldosterone-producing adenomas. We have therefore sought signature ZG genes, which may provide insight into the frequency and pathogenesis of ZG-like aldosterone-producing adenomas. Twenty-one pairs
