Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
IHC-P: 1/25 - 1/50. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections require high temperature antigen unmasking with 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 prior to immunostaining.

Not tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

AMACR has been recently described as a prostate cancer specific gene that encodes a protein involved in the beta oxidation of branched chain fatty acids. Expression of AMACR protein is found in prostatic adenocarcinoma but not in benign prostatic tissue. It stains premalignant lesions of prostate: high grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) and atypical adenomatous hyperplasia. AMACR can be used as a positive marker for PIN.
The p63 gene is highly expressed in the basal or progenitor layers of many epithelial tissues. P63 shows remarkable structural similarity to p53 gene. Unlike p53, the p63 gene encodes multiple isotypes with remarkable divergent abilities to transactivate p53 reporter genes and induce apoptosis.
The combination of AMACR and p63 (PIN) may be extremely useful for diagnosing prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN). AMACR stains cytoplasm in prostatic adenocarcinomas and atypical hyperplasia and p63 stains nuclei in normal and benign prostate glands.
