Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a derivative of fluorescein and has excitation and emission spectrum peak wavelengths of approximately 495 nm and 519 nm, causing it to fluoresce green. 

Background

Claudins are integral membrane proteins and components of tight junctions. The claudin-18 gene has two splice variants: claudin-18.1, which is found primarily in the lung, and claudin-18.2, which is expressed exclusively in the stomach. Claudin-18.2 is highly expressed in gastric and pancreatic adenocarcinoma and may be involved in tumor development and progression. It is an ideal target for therapy and effort has been put into the development of monoclonal antibodies against claudin 18.2, such as Zolbetuximab. Studies of claudin-18.2 function and expression patterns will continue to broaden our knowledge and application in cancer therapy.
