Rabbit anti Human EGF recognizes human Epidermal Growth Factor, a potent stimulator and regulator of the proliferation of epidermal and epithelial cells, expressed by a variety of cells.

The effects of EGF are initiated through tyrosine kinase activity, following the binding of EGF to the extracellular domain of the ~170 kDa EGF receptor (EGFR), which also binds other EGF-like ligands with high affinity, including TGF-a (transforming growth factor alpha), VGF (vaccinia virus growth factor) and Betacellulin, expressed in the pancreas, small intestine and by certain tumour cells (Seno et al. 1996). Receptor activation through EGF binding triggers several signal transduction pathways, including the JAK/STAT and P13K/AKT pathways.

  1. 1This product requires heat-mediated pre-treatment of paraffin sections prior to staining. Citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for this purpose
Where this product has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the product for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
ELISA
This purified human EGF antibody may be used in an indirect ELISA or as the capture reagent in a sandwich ELISA with a biotinylated human EGF antibody (AHP767B) as the detection reagent and recombinant human EGF (PHP030A) as the standard.
Histology Positive Control Tissue
Human kidney
Western Blotting
Rabbit anti human EGF may be used in Western Blotting applications under either reducing or non-reducing conditions with recombinant human EGF (PHP030A) as the positive control.
