Paired box (Pax) protein 8 (Pax8) is a transcription factor and member of the Pax family that functions as both a transcriptional activator and repressor and has an essential role in thyroid development.{15190,64179} It is composed of a DNA-binding paired domain, conserved octapeptide, partial homeodomain, transactivation domain, and an inhibitory domain.{15190,64180} Alternative splicing of PAX8 pre-mRNA encoding the C-terminus results in five isoforms with varying DNA-binding capabilities and transcriptional activities.{64181} Pax8 is expressed during the mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition in the development of various organs and localizes to the nucleus. It is involved in cell survival, differentiation, and stem cell lineage commitment.{15190} Knockout of Pax8 produces smaller thyroids without follicles in mice.{64182} PAX8 mutations have been found in patients with thyroid dysgenesis, and chromosomal translocations leading to the fusion of PAX8 with PPARG, resulting in expression of Pax8-PPAR? fusion proteins, are associated with follicular thyroid carcinomas.{64179,8382} Cayman’s Pax8 (C-Term) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody can be used for immunohistochemistry (IHC).
