General description

Anti-Progesterone receptor antibody detects endogenous levels of total progesterone receptor protein.
The progesterone receptor (PR) gene is mapped to human chromosome 11q22–23. The gene encodes for two isoforms, namely PR-A and PR-B, each of which is transcribed from a specific promoter region. The encoded receptor belongs to the family of steroid hormone receptors.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Progesterone Receptor.

Immunogen Range: 261-310

Application

Anti-Progesterone receptor antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting and immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Progesterone receptor (PR) mediates the actions of progesterone which is essential to maintain pregnancy. PR is known to regulate the genes involved in the process of cell cycle, cell adhesion, invasion, differentiation, proliferation, inflammation, and apoptosis. PR expression might serve as a biomarker in axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis. Abnormal expression of PR is observed in breast cancer.
