Our anti-SPINK2 in acute myeloid leukemia research

Article: "SPINK2 Protein Expression Is an Independent Adverse Prognostic Marker in AML and Is Potentially Implicated in the Regulation of Ferroptosis and Immune Response"

Congratulations to Herbert Augustus Pitts and colleagues at the Chinese University of Hong Kong for their latest publication on AML, one of the most challenging types of leukemia to treat. 

Using next-generation sequencing, Ventana Benchmark Ultra protocol, and our Anti-SPINK2 (HPA026813) Triple A polyclonal, the research shows that SPINK2 (serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 2) expression can be an independent adverse prognostic marker for clinical outcome and therapy resistance in AML.

The image from Pitts et al, 2023 is a representative IHC image of SPINK2 staining (dilution of 1:100) showing strong (A) expression and low/absent (B) expression. in adult AML.

SPINK2 is an adverse prognostic marker in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
