Product Details anti-TNF alpha Antibody

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Species reactivity (tested):Mouse.

Purification: Selective salt precipitation

Immunogen: Recombinant Mouse TNF-alpha produced in E.coli.

Application Details

Application Notes: Western Blot: Use HRP Goat-anti-Rabbit IgG [H&L] (code R1364HRP) and TMB as asubstrate. A working dilution range of 1: 500 to 1: 2,000 is suggested for this application to detect TNFαfrom supernatants or lysates of 2 x 10^6 endotoxin-stimulated mouse peripheral bloodmononuclear cells (PBMC). PBMC are stimulated for 24 hours with 1 % (v/v) mouse serumplus 10 ng/mL E. coli LPS. Immunohistochemistry: A dilution range of 1: 400 is suggested for this immunoassay. Either paraffin fixation or cryofixation can be used for immunohistochemistry using adilution of 1: 200 for staining of TNFα.

Target Details for TNF alpha

Target: TNF alpha (Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF alpha))

Alternative Name: Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF-Alpha)

Background: Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF alpha) is a protein secreted by lipopolysaccharide stimulated macrophages, and causes tumor necrosis when injected into tumour bearing mice. TNF alpha is believed to mediate pathogenic shock and tissue injury associated with endotoxemia. TNF alpha exists as a multimer of two, three, or five noncovalently linked units, but shows a single 17 kDa band following SDS PAGE under non reducing conditions. TNF alpha is closely related to the 25 kDa protein Tumour Necrosis Factor beta (lymphotoxin), sharing the same receptors and cellular actions. TNF alpha causes cytolysis or cytostasis of certain transformed cells, being synergistic with interferon gamma in its cytotoxicity. Although it has little effect on many cultured normal human cells, TNF alpha appears to be directly toxic to vascular endothelial cells. Other actions of TNF alpha include stimulating growth of human fibroblasts and other cell lines, activating polymorphonuclear neutrophils and osteoclasts, and induction of interleukin 1, prostaglandin E2 and collagenase production. TNF alpha is currently being evaluated in treatment of certain cancers and AIDS Related Complex.Synonyms: Cachectin, TNF, TNF-a, TNFA, TNFSF2, Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 2
