Used in research and diagnostic applications to detect and study Cadherin-17 (CDH17) expression in tissues, particularly in gastrointestinal and liver cancers. Helps identify tumor origin and supports immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays for cancer classification. Employed in flow cytometry and Western blotting to analyze cell surface markers and protein levels. Also serves as a reference reagent in the development of therapeutic antibodies targeting CDH17-positive cancers.
