Napsin A Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody

Napsin A is a pepsin-like aspartic proteinase contains 420 amino acids. It is predominantly expressed in the lung and kidney. In the lung, Napsin A is expressed in alveolar type II pneumocytes, regulated by TTF-1, and is involved in the generation of the surfactant protein B. Intra-alveolar macrophages contain Napsin A as a result of phagocytosis. In the kidney, Napsin A is expressed in the proximal tubules, where it is involved in lysosomal protein catabolism.Napsin A is important in the differential diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma vs. squamous cell carcinoma, used in a panel with TTF-1, CK5 and p63. For tumours presenting as adenocarcinoma of unknown origin, the identification of a lung origin may be aided by NapA together with TTF1, and renal origin by NapA together with PAX8.
