General description

Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), also known as advanced glycosylation end-product specific receptor (AGER) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 6p21. The encoded protein is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell surface molecules.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 362-380 from rat RAGE. This sequence is 100% conserved in mouse and 70% conserved in human.

Application

Anti-RAGE (Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blot and flow cytometry.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The soluble form of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) has a function in the Wnt pathway. RAGE has a role in the development of inflammatory and cellular damage, as well as cellular toxicity. It has been associated with diabetic atherosclerosis. AGER/RAGE also modulates cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.{93

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 1.0 mg/mL bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide.
