Factor XIIIa
GM84/Mouse/Monoclonal
Gene Bio Solution Factor XIIIa Antibody. Gene Bio Solution’s recombinant mouse antibody recognizes Factor XIIIa, a fibrin stabilizing factor that is most commonly recognized as a marker of fibrohistiocytic proliferations but widely expressed in a variety of cell types. Factor XIIIa is derived from monocyte and macrophage myeloid lineage and expressed in dermal dendrocytes, primarily surrounding microvasculature in the adventitial dermis near the dermoepidermal junction and near skin appendages.
The Factor XIIIa antibody recognizes a protein of 83kDa. Factor XIIIa has been identified in platelets, megakaryocytes, and fibroblast-like mesenchymal or histiocytic cells in the placenta, uterus, and prostate, monocytes and macrophages and dermal dendritic cells. The Factor XIIIa antibody has been found to be useful in differentiating between dermatofibroma (almost all cases are positive), dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (-/+) and desmoplastic malignant melanoma (-). The Factor XIIIa antibody positivity is also seen in capillary hemangioblastoma, hemangioendothelioma, hemangiopericytoma, xanthogranuloma, xanthoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, glomus tumor, and meningioma.
