General description

Claudin-5, a transmembrane protein deleted in velo-cardio-facial syndrome (TMVCF), seems to be involved in endothelial tight junctions. Claudin-5 has been exclusively found in the cell-cell borders of endothelial cells. Lower claudin-5 levels in sinusoidal endothelial cells could lead to their dysfunction during liver injuries. Levels of claudin-5 in tumor vessels could be a potential marker for hepatocellular carcinoma prognosis. The loss of claudin-5 function has been linked to carcinogenesis.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes Claudin-5 at the cytoplasmic domain.

Immunogen

Epitope: Cytoplasmic Domain
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human Claudin-5 at the cytoplasmic domain.

Application

Anti-Claudin-5 Antibody detects level of Claudin-5 & has been published & validated for use in WB, IH(P).
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:800 dilution from a representative lot detected Clausin-5 in prostate tissue.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in human lung tissue lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 0.1 µg/mL of this antibody detected Claudin-5 in 10 µg of human lung tissue lysate.

Target description

~17 kDa observed.
Molecular weights at ~17 kDa and 62 kDa may be observed depending on phosphorylation and glycosylation effects (Ishizaki, T., et al. (2003). Experimental Cell Research. 290:275–288).

Levels of neutrophil elastase, a serine protease secreted by neutrophils, are elevated in diabetes. The purpose of this study was to determine whether neutrophil elastase (NE) contributes to the diabetes-induced increase in retinal vascular permeability in mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes

The mechanism of blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, involved in poststroke edema and hemorrhagic transformation, is important but elusive. We investigated microRNA-150 (miR-150)-mediated mechanism in the disruption of BBB after stroke in rats. We found that up-regulation of miR-150 increased permeability

Neurologic injury is common after cardiac surgery and disruption of the blood brain barrier (BBB) has been proposed as a contributing factor. We sought to study BBB characteristics in a rodent model of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and deep hypothermic circulatory

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) destruction is associated with a variety of neurological diseases. Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) are the key constituent of BBB. Both matrix metalloproteinases-2/9 (MMP-2/9) and toll-like receptor-2 (TLR2) are coexpressed in BMECs and have been shown to
