General description

ARG1 (arginase 1) is an enzyme responsible for the processing of the essential amino acid arginine, to produce urea and L-ornithine. This enzyme is expressed in the presence of Th2 (T-helper) cytokines such as, interleukin (IL-4), IL-13 and TGFβ (tumor growth factor).

Immunogen

Arginase-1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The human ARG1 gene encodes the protein arginase. During trauma, cancer, chronic wounds, pregnancy and diabetes the serum arginase levels is found to be elevated. It shows superior sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of HCC (Hepatocellular Carcinoma) while it has low sensitivity and a very high specificity for pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAD). It might regulate serum L-arginine and 3-nitrotyrosine through L-arginine. Hepatocyte arginase deficiency causes argininemia (an autosomal recessive genetic disorder).

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the diagnostic value of glypican-3 (GPC3), arginase-1 (Arg-1), and hepatocyte paraffin antigen 1 (HepPar-1) in differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). The expression of GPC3, HepPar-1 and Arg-1 were

Distinguishing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from adenocarcinoma in fine-needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) is often diagnostically challenging. Arginase-1 was recently described as a marker of hepatic differentiation in surgical resection specimens. We compared the expression of arginase-1, HepPar-1, and glypican-3 in FNAB
