It is a transcriptional repressor expressed in the developing pancreas and nervous system and targets genes such as Î² and insulin, critical regulators of neuroendocrine differentiation during development (2-5). Most importantly, INSM1 has emerged as a key marker in neuroendocrine tumor types, including small cell lung cancer (SCLC), medullary thyroid carcinoma, pheochromocytoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, neuroblastoma, and neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas, breast, colon, bladder, and prostate (6-9). Some studies have also shown that the level of INSM1 expression may have prognostic value (10,11).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nIA-1; IA1; INSM transcriptional repressor 1; INSM1; insulinoma-associated 1; Insulinoma-associated protein 1; Zinc finger protein IA-1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800286351529,"sku":"72247T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-72247t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
