Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab10409 in the following tested applications.

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

Target

Function

EGF stimulates the growth of various epidermal and epithelial tissues in vivo and in vitro and of some fibroblasts in cell culture. Magnesiotropic hormone that stimulates magnesium reabsorption in the renal distal convoluted tubule via engagement of EGFR and activation of the magnesium channel TRPM6.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in kidney, salivary gland, cerebrum and prostate.

Involvement in disease

Defects in EGF are the cause of hypomagnesemia type 4 (HOMG4) [MIM:611718]; also known as renal hypomagnesemia normocalciuric. HOMG4 is a disorder characterized by massive renal hypomagnesemia and normal levels of serum calcium and calcium excretion. Clinical features include seizures, mild-to mederate psychomotor retardation, and brisk tendon reflexes.

Sequence similarities

Contains 9 EGF-like domains.
Contains 9 LDL-receptor class B repeats.

Cellular localization

Membrane.

Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - EGF antibody [EGF-10] (ab10409)

ab10409 staining EGF in human normal skin tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (frozen sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde. Samples were blocked with 10% serum for 30 minutes at 21°C followed by incubation with the primary antibody at a 1/500 dilution for 30 minutes at 21°C. An undiluted HRP-conjugated goat polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.
