Specifications for GDF15 Antibody

Product Details

Description: Anti-NAG-1 (C-terminal specific) (MOUSE) Monoclonal Antibody - 200-301-B07

Synonyms: mouse anti-NAG1 Antibody, NAG-1, GDF15, MIC-1, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-activated gene, NSAID-activated gene 1 protein, growth differentiation factor 15, macrophage inhibitory compound 1, prostate-derived factor

Host Species: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Format: IgG1

Target Details

Gene Name: GDF15 - View All GDF15 Products

Reactivity: Human

Immunogen Type: Recombinant Protein

Immunogen: This Protein A purified antibody was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a region near the carboxy terminal end of human NAG-1 protein. A residue of cysteine was added to facilitate coupling to KLH.

Purity/Specificity: This product was purified from concentrated tissue culture supernatant Protein A chromatography. This antibody reacts with the C-terminus of endogenous NAG-1 protein from human tissues. A BLAST analysis suggests reactivity with NAG-1 from chimpanzee and macaque based on a 100% homology. Partial reactivity is expected against rat based on an 86% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with NAG-1 from other sources has not been determined.

Application Details

Tested Applications: ELISA, WB

Application Note: This Protein A purified Anti-NAG1/GDF15 antibody has been tested by ELISA and western blotting for human NAG-1 protein. For detection of NAG-1 in human serum, a sandwich ELISA is suggested using this antibody in combination with anti-NAG1/GDF15 (N-terminal), H variant or D variant specific antibodies. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect bands in Western blots of native protein of approximately 13 and 26 kDa in size corresponding to NAG-1 monomer and dimer, respectively, using the appropriate cell lysate or extract.

Background

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) activated gene (NAG-1) is a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily. NAG-1 is also known as Macrophage Inhibitory Cytokine-1 (MIC-1), Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), Placental Bone Morphogenetic Protein (PLAB), or Prostate Derived Factor (PDF). NAG-1 is expressed in human placenta, prostate and colon. It possesses antitumorigenic and proapoptotic activities. NAG-1 expression is dramatically increased in inflammation, injury and malignancy. Increase of NAG-1 expression is a feature of many cancers including breast, colon, pancreas and prostate. In a number of studies, NAG-1 expression was increased by a number of NSAIDs. This increase in expression may correlate with the chemopreventive effect NSAIDs seem to have with certain cancers. NAG-1 expression is also induced by PPAR gamma ligands and by several dietary compounds such as conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs), naturally occurring fatty acids in ruminant food products, indoles, epicatechin gallate, and genistein. Induced expression of NAG-1 results in stimulation of apoptosis and inhibition of cell growth. Inhibition of NAG-1 induced expression by small interference RNA (siRNA) results in repression of induced apoptosis. NAG-1 expression is regulated by a numbers of transcription factors such as ERG-1 and Sp1. EGR-1 may be necessary for NSAID-induced NAG-1 expression. The study of expression of NAG-1 proteins, including variants, is important to define their potential role as serum biomarkers for cancer diagnosis, treatment monitoring, epidemiology study, and nutrition surveys.
