Descripción

General description

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) was first identified as a 50 kDa secreted protein in conditioned medium from cultured fetal human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells (Tombran-Tink, 1991). More recently, PEDF was shown to have neurotrophic activity in the retina in vivo (Cayouette, 1999). PEDF is also a neurotrophic and neuroprotective factor in other systems, including cultured cerebellar granule cells, primary hippocampal neurons, spinal cord motor neurons and amphibian photoreceptors cultured in the absence of RPE cells (Karakousis, 2001). The binding of PEDF to retinoblastoma and cerebellar granule cells may be receptor-mediated. Recently, PEDF was shown to be a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis in endothelial cell cultures and in rat cornea and retina in vivo (Dawson, 1999; Stellmach, 2001).

Specificity

Recognizes Pigment-Epithelium Derived Factor (PEDF).

Immunogen

Recombinant human GST-PEDF fusion protein. The sequence corresponding to amino
acids 196-347 of human PEDF tagged with GST on the N-terminal was expressed in E. Coli. GST-PEDF is about 46 kDa on SDS-PAGE.

Application

Anti-Pigment Epithelium Derived Factor Antibody, clone 10F12.2 is an antibody against Pigment Epithelium Derived Factor for use in ELISA, IC, IH & WB.
