EMA (Epithelial Membrane Antigen) Antibody (Immunohistochemistry)
The EMA (Epithelial Membrane Antigen) Antibody is one of the most widely used
immunohistochemical markers for identifying epithelial and epithelial-like tumors.
EMA is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is normally expressed in a broad range of epithelial tissues.
As a result, it plays an important role in tumor classification.
In IHC staining, EMA shows membranous or cytoplasmic positivity in many tumors.
These include breast, ovarian, lung, colon, and renal carcinomas. Moreover, EMA expression is also seen
in mesotheliomas, synovial sarcomas, and plasma cell neoplasms. Therefore, EMA helps pathologists
distinguish epithelial tumors from lymphoma or melanoma.
