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, located in the outer cell membrane, and involved in tumor development and progression. In addition, it has exposed extracellular loops and is available for monoclonal antibody binding. These biological characteristics suggest that it is an ideal target for therapy and have led to the further development of monoclonal antibodies against claudin 18.2, such as Zolbetuximab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bhp-cat-pill\"\u003eCell Signaling\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecombinant clonal CHO cell line stably expressing full length human claudin 18.2 (claudin 18 isoform 2, CLDN 18.2, gene accession number NM_001002026.3).
