IGF-BP7 Antibody (biotin) | 38-155 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human

Homology: N/A

Immunogen: Produced from sera of rabbits pre-immunized with highly pure (>98%) recombinant hIGF-BP7. Human IGF-BP7 specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and then biotinylated.

Research Area: Antibody Pairs

Tested Application: E, WB

Application: ELISA:
Sandwich:
To detect hIGF-BP7 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μ/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.25 - 1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This biotinylated polyclonal antibody, in conjunction with our polyclonal Anti-Human IGF-BP7 as a capture antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIGF-BP7.
Western Blot:
To detect hIGF-BP7 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hIGF-BP7 is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

BACKGROUND: IGF-BPs form high affinity complexes with both IGF-I and IGF-II and act to control of the distribution, function and activity of IGFs in various cell tissues and body fluids. There are seven named IGF-BPs. IGF-BP7 plays a role in skeletal myogenesis by binding to IGF in a manner that inhibits IGF induced differentiation of skeletal myoblasts, without affecting IGF induced proliferation. Additionally, IGF-BP7 suppresses growth and colony formation of prostate and breast cancer cell lines through an IGF independent mechanism, which causes a delay in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, and increased apoptosis. IGF-BP7 is expressed in a wide range of normal human tissues and it usually shows reduced expression in cancer cell lines of prostate, breast, colon, and lung origin.
