Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent concentration. WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 43 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 24, 45 kDa). Can be blocked with VEGF peptide (ab46160).
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance
|
VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) is a homodimeric, disulfide-linked glycoprotein involved in angiogenesis which promotes tumor progression and metastasis. It exhibits potent mitogenic and permeability inducing properties specific for the vascular endothelium. Of the four isoforms of VEGF, the smaller two, VEGF 165 and VEGF 121, are secreted proteins and act as diffusible agents, whereas the larger two (VEGF 189 and VEGF 206) remain cell associated.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - VEGF antibody (ab46154)
ICC/IF image of ab46154 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab46154, 1µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. 1%BSA / 10% normal serum / 0.3M glycine was used to quench autofluorescence and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - VEGF antibody (ab46154)
ab46154 staining kidney tissue sections (human, mouse and rat) by IHC-P. Sections were formaldehyde fixed and subjected to heat mediated antigen retrieval prior to blocking with sequential peroxidase and protein block (prediluted) for 20 minutes at 20°C. The primary antibody was diluted 1/100 and incubated with the samples for 45 minutes at 20°C. A HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.
