Overview

  • Product nameAnti-Angiotensin II antibody [BGN/0856/21]See all Angiotensin II primary antibodies ...
  • Description
    Mouse monoclonal [BGN/0856/21] to Angiotensin II
  • SpecificityIn ELISA this antibody cross reacts with Angiotensins I, II and III. Therefore this antibody is not specific for the immunising angiotensin in ELISA.
  • Tested applicationsELISA more details
  • Species reactivity
    Reacts with: Human
  • Immunogen

    A peptide representing Angiotensin II, conjugated to rabbit albumin.

  • EpitopeIncomplete mapping indicates the site of reactivity to be Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro[AI/II(3-8)], a conserved region of all angiotensin molecules.

Properties

Applications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab35643 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application Notes
ELISA
  • Application notesELISA: 1/5000 - 1/500000.
    In a simple indirect ELISA using 400ng of antigen coated per well, the 50% OD was observed at the titre above, against Angiotensin I, II and III.

    Not yet tested in other applications.
    Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

    • Target

    • FunctionEssential component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), a potent regulator of blood pressure, body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. In response to lowered blood pressure, the enzyme renin cleaves angiotensinogen to produce angiotensin-1 (angiotensin 1-10). Angiotensin-1 is a substrate of ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) that removes a dipeptide to yield the physiologically active peptide angiotensin-2 (angiotensin 1-8). Angiotensin-1 and angiotensin-2 can be further processed to generate angiotensin-3 (angiotensin 2-8), angiotensin-4 (angiotensin 3-8). Angiotensin 1-7 is cleaved from angiotensin-2 by ACE2 or from angiotensin-1 by MME (neprilysin). Angiotensin 1-9 is cleaved from angiotensin-1 by ACE2.
      Angiotensin-2 acts directly on vascular smooth muscle as a potent vasoconstrictor, affects cardiac contractility and heart rate through its action on the sympathetic nervous system, and alters renal sodium and water absorption through its ability to stimulate the zona glomerulosa cells of the adrenal cortex to synthesize and secrete aldosterone.
      Angiotensin-3 stimulates aldosterone release.
      Angiotensin 1-7 is a ligand for the G-protein coupled receptor MAS1 (By similarity). Has vasodilator and antidiuretic effects (By similarity). Has an antithrombotic effect that involves MAS1-mediated release of nitric oxide from platelets.
    • Tissue specificityExpressed by the liver and secreted in plasma.
    • Involvement in diseaseGenetic variations in AGT are a cause of susceptibility to essential hypertension (EHT) [MIM:145500]. Essential hypertension is a condition in which blood pressure is consistently higher than normal with no identifiable cause.
      Defects in AGT are a cause of renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD) [MIM:267430]. RTD is an autosomal recessive severe disorder of renal tubular development characterized by persistent fetal anuria and perinatal death, probably due to pulmonary hypoplasia from early-onset oligohydramnios (the Potter phenotype).
    • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the serpin family.
    • Post-translational
      modifications      Beta-decarboxylation of Asp-34 in angiotensin-2, by mononuclear leukocytes produces alanine. The resulting peptide form, angiotensin-A, has the same affinity for the AT1 receptor as angiotensin-2, but a higher affinity for the AT2 receptor.
    • Cellular localizationSecreted.
