DR4, referred to as TRAIL Receptor-1, is a novel death domain containing receptor whose ligand has been identified as TRAIL or apoptosis-inducing ligand 2 (Apo2L). It is a member of the TNF superfamily of receptors that induce apoptosis. It is expressed in most human tissues including spleen, peripheral blood leukocytes, small intestine, and thymus.
Inmunógeno
synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1-20 of the N-terminal of the mature human DR4.
Aplicación
Anti-DR4 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for microarray and immunoblotting at a working dilution of 1:500-1:1000 using total HeLa, K562, and Jurkat whole cell lysates. It was used as a primary antibody in the immunodetection of DR4 in cell lysate of human small cell lung carcinoma cells. It was used as a primary antibody in the immunoblot analysis of fetal and adenocarcinoma epithelial colon cells in a study.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Western Blotting (1 paper)
Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas
DR4 induces apoptosis in a variety of human tumor cell lines, but not in normal cells and activates NF-κB.
Forma física
Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.02% sodium azide

The resistance of transformed epithelial cells to a detachment-induced apoptosis (anoikis) can significantly affect their susceptibility to anticancer therapy. We showed that detachment of both fetal (FHC) and adenocarcinoma (HT-29) human colon epithelial cells resulted in the activation of the
TRAIL induces apoptosis through two closely related receptors, TRAIL-R1 (DR4) and TRAIL-R2 (DR5). Here we show that TRAIL-R1 can associate with TRAIL-R2, suggesting that TRAIL may signal through heteroreceptor signaling complexes. Both TRAIL receptors bind the adaptor molecules FADD and
TRAIL is considered as a promising anti-cancer agent, because of its ability to induce apoptosis in cancer but not in most normal cells. However, growing evidence exist that many cancer cells are resistant to its apoptotic effects. SCLC is a
A novel tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family member has been cloned and characterized. This protein, designated TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), consists of 281 and 291 aa in the human and murine forms, respectively, which share 65% aa identity. TRAIL is
Death Receptor 5 (DR5) is known to be an important anti-cancer drug target. TRAIL is a natural ligand of DR5, but its drug action is limited because of several factors. A few agonistic ligands were identified as TRAIL-DR5 axis modulators
