Anti-Human FGF4 neutralizes the bioactivity of recombinant, human FGF4 but not that of bovine or human, recombinant FGF Basic, bovine or human, recombinant FGF Acidic, human, recombinant FGF 5, human, recombinant FGF6, or human, recombinant ECGF. In indirect ELISA and immunoblotting, this antibody displays no cross-reactivity with bovine or human, recombinant FGF Basic, bovine or human, recombinant FGF Acidic, or human, recombinant ECGF.

Recommended dilutions I-ELISA: Use at a concentration of 0.5 µg/ml. Neut: Use at an assay dependent dilution. WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 22 kDa.
Anti-Human FGF4 is tested for its ability to neutralize the bioactivity of rhFGF4 in a cell proliferation assay using FGF4 responsive NR6-3T3 fibroblasts. The ND50 of the antibody is defined as the concentration of antibody resulting in a one-half maximal inhibition of bioactivity of rhFGF4, which is present at five times its own EC50 (the concentration of rhFGF4 producing a one-half maximal bioactivity without antibody).
In this bioassay, rhFGF4 was pre-incubated with various dilutions of the antibody for 1 hour at 37C in a 96-well microtiter plate. Then antigen-antibody mixtures were added to quiescent confluent NR6-3T3 cultures in 0.1 ml containing 0.5 ng/ml rhFGF-4. This was incubated for 20 hours at 37C in a 5% CO humidified incubator and then pulsed for 2 hours with H-thymidine. Cells were harvested onto glass filters and the H-thymidine incorporation into DNA was measured.
Not tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance

FGF4 is a heparin binding growth factor that is a member of the FGF family. Proteins of this family play a central role during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. FGF4 signals through the FGFR 1c, 2c, 3c, and 4.
Fibroblast growth factor 4 is a member of the FGF family, a group of 7 homologous polypeptides that act upon a variety of cells and produce biological actions that may include cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. FGF4, also known as oncogene products hst1 and KFGF, has strong transforming potential and is a potent angiogenic factor, being expressed in several highly vascularized tumors.
