The expression of mammalian NKX3.1 is androgen-dependent, restricted primarily to developing and mature prostate epithelium, and is frequently reduced or lost in prostate cancer (1-3). The human gene is located on chromsome 8p21.2, within a region that shows loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in \u0026gt;50% of prostate cancer cases (2). Allelic loss at the locus is also common in high grade Prostate Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PIN), thought to be a putative precursor lesion to invasive prostate adenocarcinomas, suggesting that LOH at the locus is a critical early step in prostate cancer development (4). Notably, the remaining allele is intact in the majority of LOH cases, leading to the suggestion that NKX3.1 functions as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor (4-6). Due to its highly restricted expression in prostate epithelial cells, NKX3.1 has been suggested as a diagnostic marker of prostate carcinoma (7), and may have additional utility as a biomarker of metastatic lesions originating in the prostate (8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBAPX2; Homeobox protein NK-3 homolog A; Homeobox protein Nkx-3.1; NK homeobox, family 3, A; NK3 homeobox 1; NK3 transcription factor homolog A; NK3 transcription factor related, locus 1; NKX3; NKX3-1; NKX3.1; NKX31; NKX3A\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 30\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799939731625,"sku":"83700S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-83700s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
