General description
Insulin-like growth factors -I and -II are important regulators of signalling that mediates growth and metabolism in cells. Insulin-like growth factor -II (IGF-II) is widely expressed during embryonic stages and regulates the placental development. IGF-II acts via specific receptor, IGF-IIR, the binding does not result in signal transduction, but is a mechanism to restrict the bioavailability of IGF-II. IGF-II also binds to IGF-IR which results in the activation of MAPK, Raf/Ras and PI3K cascades. The effects of IGF-II signalling are important in growth of blood vessels (angiogenesis) gene transcription, proliferation and transformation. Irregular IGF-II signaling has been implicated in many cancers including lung cancer, colo-rectal cancer, cervical cancer, testicular cancer, rhabdosarcoma, melanoma and hepatoblastoma
Anti-IGF-II recognizes human insulin-like growth factor II. It does not react with human IGF-I.
Anti-IGF-II recognizes human insulin-like growth factor II. It does not react with human IGF-I.
Specificity
The antibody will neutralize the biological activity of recombinant human IGF-II. It does not neutralize the biological activity of recombinant human IGF-I.
Immunogen
recombinant human IGF-II
Application
Anti- IGF-II antibody may be used for neutralization reactions, the ND50 of the antibody is 0.2-0.8 μg/ml. This antibody was used to neutralize IGF-II in glioblastoma cell lines. For immunohistochemistry a working antibody concentration of 5-15 μg/ml may be used for formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human placenta sections. The antibody is suitable for immunoblotting.
Physical form
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, with 5% trehalose

In mammals, the insulin receptor (IR) gene has acquired an additional exon, exon 11. This exon may be skipped in a developmental and tissue-specific manner. The IR, therefore, occurs in two isoforms (exon 11 minus IR-A and exon 11 plus

Glioblastoma is the most common and malignant form of primary astrocytoma. Upon investigation of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) pathway, we found the IGF2BP3/IMP3 transcript and protein to be up-regulated in GBMs but not in lower grade astrocytomas (p <

Recent data suggest that the IGF system plays an important role in the pathogenesis of several forms of human cancer, and there is evidence that IGFs acting in an autocrine and paracrine manner may also affect colorectal cancer risk. We

Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF2) is perhaps the most intricately regulated of all growth factors characterized to date. Its gene is imprinted--only one allele is active, depending on parental origin--and this pattern of expression is maintained epigenetically in almost all

Insulin-like growth factors were discovered more than 50 years ago as mediators of growth hormone that effect growth and differentiation of bone and skeletal muscle. Interest of the role of insulin-like growth factors in cancer reached a peak in the
