Monoclonal Anti-α1-Acid Glycoprotein (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the AGP-47 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. α1-Acid Glycoprotein (AGP) is an acute-phase plasma protein. This protein is mainly produced in the hepatocytes. AGP1 gene is mapped on the human chromosome at 9q32.
Specificity
Recognizes an epitope located on the 44 kDa subunit of denatured-reduced AGP using the immunoblotting technique. It does not cross react with human serum amyloid P component, human haptoglobin, human C-reactive protein, and human IgG.
Immunogen
human α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP).
Biochem/physiol Actions
α1-Acid Glycoprotein (AGP) associates with haptoglobin and C-reactive protein, which indicates inflammation. Higher levels of AGP is associated with various inflammatory diseases, trauma, malignancies, myocardial infarction, rheumatoid arthritis, after major surgery, and in cases of chronic pain. This protein is capable of binding and transporting basic and neutral drugs.
Physical form
The product is provided as ascites fluid with 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative.
Storage and Stability
For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, the solution may be frozen in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Storage in "frost-free" freezers is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use.

Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP-1) is a positive acute phase glycoprotein with uncertain functions. Serum AGP-1 (sAGP-1) is primarily derived from hepatocytes and circulates as 12-20 different glycoforms. We isolated a glycoform secreted from platelet-activating factor (PAF)-stimulated human neutrophils (nAGP-1). Its peptide
alpha(1)-Acid glycoprotein (AGP) is a protein with a molecular weight of 41-43 kDa and is heavily glycosylated (45%). Due to the presence of sialic acids, it is negatively charged (pI=2.7-3.2). AGP is an acute phase protein in all mammals investigated

Lectin is a biomolecule that recognizes a specific part of glycans and, thus, has been used widely as a probe for glycoprotein analysis. Owing to the wide repertoire in nature combined with the recent two decades of advances in microarray
TNF is an inflammatory cytokine that upon binding to its receptor, TNFR1, can drive cytokine production, cell survival, or cell death. TNFR1 stimulation causes activation of NF-κB, p38α, and its downstream effector kinase MK2, thereby promoting transcription, mRNA stabilization, and
