Product Description
The Her-2/neu protein is a 185 kD trans-membrane glycoprotein associated with tyrosine kinase activity. Approximately 20-30% cases of breast cancer show an amplification and/or over-expression of Her-2/neu in tumor cells. Since the introduction of Herceptin® as a targeted therapy for breast cancer, the clinical testing of Her-2/neu in breast carcinoma has become very important in patient care.
