Phospho-Lyn (Tyr507) (5B6) rabbit mAb FITC conjugate Antibody

Lyn, along with Btk, supports the abnormal growth and survival of neoplastic mast cells. Phosphorylated Lyn has been identified in these cancerous cells, along with phosphorylated Btk, Hck, and Stat5. Dasatinib, a chemotherapy drug used to treat leukemia, is a tyrosine kinase inihibitor that binds directly to Lyn in neoplastic cells. Lyn and Btk have also been shown to be involved in IgE receptor-dependent activation. Increased Lyn activity, detected by higher amounts of phospho Lyn, has been demonstrated in breast cancer cell lines. This is likely mediated through effects of upstream regulators of Lyn, rather than mutations in Lyn itself.
