NR5A2 belongs to the nuclear receptor subfamily. It has been implicated in acinar cell differentiation and pancreatic carcinogenesis. Rabbit Anti-NR5A2 (AB2) antibody recognizeschicken, human, mouse, and rat NR5A2.
免疫原
Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human NR5A2
アプリケーション
Rabbit Anti-NR5A2 (AB2) antibody can be used for western blot applications at a concentration of 1μg/ml.
生物化学的/生理学的作用
NR5A2 binds to the sequence element 5′-AACGACCGACCTTGAG-3′ of the enhancer II of hepatitis B virus genes, a critical cis-element of their expression and regulation. It may be responsable for the liver-specific activity of enhancer II, probably in combination with other hepatocyte transcription factors. It is a key regulator of cholesterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase gene (CYP7A) expression in liver. It may also contribute to the regulation of pancreas-specific genes and play important roles in embryonic development.

Nr5a2 participates in biliary acid metabolism and is a major regulator of the pancreatic exocrine programme. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the vicinity of NR5A2 are associated with the risk of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). To determine the role of Nr5a2
Emerging evidence from mouse models suggests that mutant Kras can drive the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) precursors from acinar cells by enforcing ductal de-differentiation at the expense of acinar identity. Recently, human genome-wide association studies have identified NR5A2
