Cancer Research Reagents & Assays

Oncology signaling, tumor immunology, angiogenesis, cancer biomarkers, and invasion/metastasis mechanisms across all cancer types.

Overview

Cancer research reagents are the antibodies, recombinant proteins, ELISA and multiplex assays, viral vectors, and validated cell lines used to study how tumors arise, evade immune control, build a blood supply, and spread. eBioHippo organizes its oncology catalog around five disease categories — tumor immunology, angiogenesis & tumor vasculature, cancer biomarkers, metastasis & invasion, and oncology signaling — spanning 22 biology subfields from immune-checkpoint biology to epithelial–mesenchymal transition. Researchers use these tools to quantify checkpoint proteins such as PD-1 and PD-L1, measure angiogenic factors like VEGF, profile circulating markers including CA-125 and CEA, and dissect driver pathways (RAS/MAPK, PI3K/AKT, p53). Whether you are phenotyping the tumor microenvironment by flow cytometry, running cytokine ELISAs, or packaging an shRNA into AAV for a knockdown study, the oncology collection maps each target to a ready-to-order product and a matched protocol.

Frequently asked

Cancer Research — common questions

What assays are used to study tumor immunology?

Flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry for checkpoint and tumor-infiltrating-lymphocyte phenotyping, cytokine ELISA and multiplex panels for the tumor microenvironment, and functional T-cell assays. BioHippo supplies validated antibodies, matched ELISA pairs, and recombinant proteins for each.

Which biomarkers are measured in cancer research?

Circulating and tissue markers such as CA-125, CEA, PSA, AFP, CA 19-9, HER2/ERBB2, and the proliferation marker Ki-67 — measured by ELISA, CLIA, or immunohistochemistry.

What reagents support angiogenesis studies?

Antibodies and ELISA kits for VEGF-A, VEGFR2/KDR, angiopoietins, HIF-1α, PDGF, and FGF-2, plus recombinant growth factors for tube-formation and sprouting assays.

Do you offer viral vectors for oncology gene studies?

Yes — AAV and lentiviral vectors for overexpression, CRISPR, and shRNA knockdown of oncogenes and tumor suppressors, available off-the-shelf or as custom packaging.
