| 目标/特异性 | Detects human Amphiregulin in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, less than 5% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse (rm) Amphiregulin, rmEpiregulin, recombinant human (rh) HB-EGF, and rhTGF-alpha is observed. |
| 使用方法 | Western Blot: 1 µg/mL Immunohistochemistry: 5-15 µg/mL Immunocytochemistry: 5-15 µg/mL Neutralization: Measured by its ability to neutralize Amphiregulin-induced proliferation in the Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.3-1 µg/mL in the presence of 50 ng/mL Recombinant Human Amphiregulin. |

| 背景 | Amphiregulin (AR) is a member of the EGF family of cytokines which is comprised of at least ten proteins including EGF, TGF-alpha, HB-EGF, and the various heregulins. All of these cytokines are synthesized as transmembrane precursors and are characterized by the presence of one or several EGF structural units in their extracellular domain. The soluble forms of these cytokines are released by proteolytic cleavage. Amphiregulin was originally isolated from the conditioned media of a PMA-treated MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cell line. The AR cDNA encodes a 252 amino acid (aa) residue transmembrane precursor. Multiple forms of native AR containing either 78 or 84 aa residues and both N- and O-linked oligosaccharides have been found. Amphiregulin mRNA expression can be detected in numerous carcinoma cell lines and the epithelial cells of various human tissues including colon, stomach, breast, ovary, kidney, etc. Human AR stimulates the proliferation of various human and mouse keratinocytes, mammary epithelial cells and some fibroblasts. AR is also a growth inhibitor for various tumor cell lines. In certain colon carcinoma cell lines, AR has been shown to be an autocrine growth factor. Amphiregulin can bind to the EGF receptor. It has been suggested that in certain cell types, AR bioactivity may be mediated through the EGF receptor. The 98 aa residue long form of recombinant amphiregulin has shown to be approximately 5 - 10 fold more active than the 78 aa residue form of recombinant AR in an in vitro proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 fibroblasts. |

Detection of Human Amphiregulin by Western Blot. Western blot shows conditioned media from T47D human breast cancer cell line untreated (-) or treated (+) with PMA and PHA for 3 days. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human Amphiregulin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF262) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). A specific band was detected for Amphiregulin at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1. | |
Amphiregulin in MCF‑7 Human Cell Line. Amphiregulin was detected in immersion fixed MCF‑7 human breast cancer cell line using Goat Anti-Human Amphiregulin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF262) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Amphiregulin in Human Breast. Amphiregulin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human breast using Goat Anti-Human Amphiregulin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF262) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Lower panel shows a lack of labeling if primary antibodies are omitted and tissue is stained only with secondary antibody followed by incubation with detection reagents.

Cell Proliferation Induced by Amphiregulin and Neutralization by Human Amphiregulin Antibody. Recombinant Human Amphiregulin (Catalog # 262‑AR) stimulates proliferation in the Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human Amphiregulin (50 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human Amphiregulin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF262). The ND50 is typically 0.3-1 µg/mL. |
