Gene Information

human ... EPHA1(2041)

General description

EPH receptor A1 (ephrin type-A receptor 1) is a protein encoded by the EPHA1 gene in humans. The erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular (Eph) family of receptor tyrosine kinases regulate a multitude of physiological and pathological processes. EphA1 is the first member of Eph superfamily and is involved in carcinogenesis. The protein localizes in the cell membrane.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 411-425 of human EPHA1.

Application

Anti-EPHA1 (411-425) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a dilution of 1:500-1:2,000.
Yale Center for High Throughput Cell Biology IF-tested antibodies. Each antibody is tested by immunofluorescence against HUVEC cells using the Yale HTCB IF protocol. To learn more about us and Yale Center for High Throughput Cell Biology partnership, visit sigma.com/htcb-if.

Biochem/physiol Actions

EphrinA1 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked ligand for the EphA2 receptor, which is overexpressed in glioblastoma (GBM), among other cancers. Its expression level is a potential prognostic marker in gastric cancer. EphA1 was overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and that elevated expression can promote proliferation of HCC cells. EphA1 receptor may have roles in carcinogenesis and progression of prostate cancer. It may act as a useful target for prognostic and therapeutic application. EphA1 can to be a differentiation marker for esophageal squamous cells and its increased expression is positively associated with lymph node metastasis and advanced disease stage. EphA1 is also associated with renal cell carcinoma. EphA1 interacts with and blocks integrin-linked kinase (ILK) activity, thereby inhibiting cell spread and migration. EphA1 stimulates migration of CD4+ T cells and CD8+CCR7+ T cells. It also participates in TNF (tumor necrosis factor)-α-mediated adhesion of monocytes to endothelial cells.

The ligand ephrin A1 is more often discussed to play a role in the development of the atherosclerotic plaque and in this context especially in the monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells. As tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is known to induce

The Eph-ephrin receptor-ligand system is implicated in cell behavior and morphology. EphA1 is the founding member of the Eph receptors, but little is known about its function. Here, we show that activation of EphA1 kinase inhibits cell spreading and migration

We have previously demonstrated that binding of ephrin-A1 to Eph receptors on human CD4+ T cells stimulates migration. Here, we show that a distinct population of CD8+ T lymphocytes, expressing the chemokine receptor CCR7, also binds ephrin-A1 and is stimulated

The Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases has emerged as one of the pivotal regulators of tumor angiogenesis. EphA1, the first identified member of the Eph receptor family, has been found to be overexpressed in several types of human tumors.

Oncology reports, 24(6), 1577-1584 (2010-11-03)
Receptor tyrosine kinases of the Eph subfamily are involved in the development and the carcinogenesis of certain cancers. In this study we investigated expression of EphA1 in gastric carcinomas, and analyzed associations between EphA1 expression and clinicopathological parameters to investigate
