Anti-TGF beta 1 antibody [TB21] (ab27969)
Overview
- Product nameAnti-TGF beta 1 antibody [TB21]See all TGF beta 1 primary antibodies ...
- DescriptionMouse monoclonal [TB21] to TGF beta 1
- SpecificityThis antibody recognises natural and recombinant TGF beta 1. It reacts with both dimeric and monomeric natural forms under reducing and non reducing conditions.
- Tested applicationsIHC-Fr, IHC-P, ELISA, ICC/IF, Neutralising, WB more details
- Species reactivityReacts with: Sheep, Human, Pig
Predicted to work with: Rat - Immunogen
Human TGF Beta 1 from human platelets.
- Positive controlHuman breast carcinoma.
- General notesWe have mixed feedback from customers about the Rat specificity so the Rat species has been moved to predicted as we can't guarantee it. The antibody has been successfully used with Rat samples in publication PMID 22471627 and PMID 19820199 though.
This clone (TB21) demonstrates neutralising activity against TGF beta 1 in cell proliferation assays. Removal of sodium azide is recommended prior to use in functional assays.

Target
- FunctionMultifunctional protein that controls proliferation, differentiation and other functions in many cell types. Many cells synthesize TGFB1 and have specific receptors for it. It positively and negatively regulates many other growth factors. It plays an important role in bone remodeling as it is a potent stimulator of osteoblastic bone formation, causing chemotaxis, proliferation and differentiation in committed osteoblasts.
- Tissue specificityHighly expressed in bone. Abundantly expressed in articular cartilage and chondrocytes and is increased in osteoarthritis (OA). Co-localizes with ASPN in chondrocytes within OA lesions of articular cartilage.
- Involvement in diseaseDefects in TGFB1 are the cause of Camurati-Engelmann disease (CE) [MIM:131300]; also known as progressive diaphyseal dysplasia 1 (DPD1). CE is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hyperostosis and sclerosis of the diaphyses of long bones. The disease typically presents in early childhood with pain, muscular weakness and waddling gait, and in some cases other features such as exophthalmos, facial paralysis, hearing difficulties and loss of vision.
- Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the TGF-beta family.
- Post-translational
modificationsGlycosylated.
The precursor is cleaved into mature TGF-beta-1 and LAP, which remains non-covalently linked to mature TGF-beta-1 rendering it inactive. - Cellular localizationSecreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix.
