[Histonet] M2D2 and SMAD

2013-12-05 Thread Sue Hunter
Good morning
Does anyone have suggestions for antibodies for M2D2 and SMAD?  We have not 
been able to get these antibodies  to work for us on the Ventana Ultras.
If you do have suggestions, protocols and control tissue suggestions would also 
be appreciated.
Thanks
Sue

Hi,
 
SMAD4 is very difficult on the Ventana platform. The only clone that would work 
on the Ventana to my knowledge(clone EP618Y, immunologic) has recently 
'collapsed' (i hope that's the right word?) It means that it is not available 
anymore. Maybe there is some vendor that has a few vials left, but my supplier 
does not. If anybody knows of some other clone for the Ventana, I am very 
interested.
 
MDM2: our sarcoma pathologist says that the MDM2 immuno is not reliable. Some 
liposarcomas will be negative. It would be better to do FISH, which is also 
very difficult because the fatty tissue often rinses off the slides.
