一般說明
Anti-Pentraxin 3 antibody, Mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the PTX3-5 hybridoma, produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mouse immunized with recombinant human pentraxin 3 protein expressed in HEK-293 cells. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), also called tumor necrosis factor inducible gene 14 protein (TSG-14), is a highly glycosylated secreted protein usually found as covalently-bound homooctamers. PTX3 belongs to the pentraxin subfamily, sharing the C-terminal domain with short pentraxins and contains a unique N-terminal domain. PTX3 is majorly present in monocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, endothelial cells and adipocytes. It is an acute-phase protein mapped to human chromosome 3q25.32.
特異性
Anti-Pentraxin 3 antibody, Mouse monoclonal recognizes both glycosylated and non-glycosylated human PTX3.
免疫原
recombinant human Pentraxin 3 protein expressed in HEK-293 cells
應用
Anti-Pentraxin 3 antibody, Mouse monoclonal may be used in immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation.
生化/生理作用
Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is released in response to primary inflammatory signals, such as toll-like receptor engagement, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β). It regulates innate resistance to pathogens, inflammatory reactions, possibly clearance of self-components and female fertility. PTX3 acts as a soluble pathogen recognition receptor and aids resistance against pathogens. It participates in the removal of apoptotic cells during an immune response. PTX3 associates with complement factor H and associates with synovial fluid in rheumatoid arthritis and also in conditions of sepsis. PTX3 is suppressed by pitavastatin, making it a biomarker for inflammatory cardiovascular disease.
外觀
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
儲存和穩定性
For continuous use, store at 2–8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
