      Applications
      Key Applications Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
      Immunoblotting (Western Blotting)
      Neutralization Studies
      Application NotesELISA (0.5-1 µg/ml, see comments)
      Immunoblotting (1-2 µg/ml)
      Neutralization Studies (see comments)
      Application CommentsThis antibody has been selected for its ability to neutralize the biological activity of human recombinant HB-EGF. It will not neutralize the biological activity of EGF, TGF-α or amphiregulin. The exact concentration of antibody required to neutralize human recombinant HB-EGF activity is dependent on the cytokine concentration, cell type, growth conditions, and the type of activity studied. Suggested neutralization concentration required to yield one-half maximal inhibition of HB-EGF activity is ~3-6 µg/ml in the presence of 10 ng/ml of human recombinant HB-EGF using a Balb/3T3 cell line. For immunoblotting, the detection limit for human recombinant HB-EGF is ~0.5 ng/lane under non-reducing and reducing conditions. For ELISA, the detection limit for human recombinant HB-EGF is ~0.03 ng/well. This antibody exhibits no cross-reactivity with other cytokines when tested in ELISA. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

      DescriptionPurified goat polyclonal antibody. Recognizes the ~19-23 kDa (apparent MW) heparin binding epidermal growth factor protein.
      BackgroundHeparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a ~22 kDa O-glycosylated protein that is a potent mitogen and chemoattractant for vascular smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts and epithelial cells but not endothelial cells. The natural protein has an apparent molecular mass of ~19-23 kDa and exists in multiple forms as a result of heterogeneous O-glycosylation and/or N-terminal truncation. HB-EGF is synthesized as a membrane-anchored precursor (proHB-EGF) that is proteolytically cleaved to release the soluble mature growth factor. The two forms are active as juxtacrine and paracrine/autocrine growth factors respectively. Recent studies show MMP-3 as one of the enzymes that cleaves HB-EGF implicating a role for MMP-3 in the regulation of HB-EGF from being a juxtacrine to a paracrine/autocrine factor. HB-EGF activates two EGF receptor subtypes, HER1/ErbB1 and HER4 and binds to heparan sulfate proteoglycan. The proHB-EGF is postulated as the high affinity receptor for diphtheria toxin (DT). Recent evidence suggests that the coexpression of proHB-EGF and CD9 on macrophages may strongly promote the development of atherosclerosis by a juxtacrine mechanism. Transcription of HB-EGF can be induced in vascular endothelial cells as well as aortic smooth muscle cells which may also play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.
