Product details

Human EGF Matched Antibody Pair Kits include a capture and a biotinylated detector antibody pair, along with a calibrated protein standard, suitable for sandwich ELISA. The Matched Antibody Pair Kit can be used to quantify native and recombinant human EGF. Optimization of the kit reagents to sample type, immunoassay format or instrumentation may be required. Guidelines for use of this kit in a standard 96-well microplate sandwich ELISA using HRP/TMB system of colorimetric detection is described in this assay procedure for the purposes of quantification. Protocol information and tips on the use of the Matched Antibody Pair kits for sandwich ELISA can be found on our . An accessory pack can be purchased which includes buffer reagents required to perform 10 x 96-well plate sandwich ELISAs (ab210905). For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair used in this kit, please see our equivalent SimpleStep ELISA kit ab217772. Please note that while the antibody pair is the same provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits.

Supplementary information

Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) also known as urogastrone is a single polypeptide that facilitates cell growth proliferation and differentiation by binding to the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR). The EGF protein is characterized by a relatively small molecular weight of approximately 6.4 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues including the kidney submandibular glands and Brunner's glands in the mouse and other species. The presence of anti-EGF antibodies can further enhance the understanding of its mechanical actions and functions in different organisms.
Biological function summary

The epidermal growth factor plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cell signaling. It functions outside a complex interacting mainly with EGFR located on the cell surface. Upon ligand binding EGF induces the receptor dimerization leading to autophosphorylation which activates intrinsic intracellular signaling cascades. This activation is critical for cellular responses such as DNA synthesis and the progression of the cell cycle. EGF recombinant proteins such as HEGF are utilized in laboratories to examine its biological activity meticulously.

Pathways

EGF engages in key cellular pathways that mediate various essential functions. It significantly activates the MAPK and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways which govern processes such as cell division and survival. These pathways require the participation of several other proteins including Ras Raf and PDK1 which help modulate their downstream effects. The interplay of EGF with associated proteins highlights its importance in maintaining proper signaling dynamics necessary for healthy cellular function. EGF ELISA kits as well as EGF ELISAs are tools developed for robust analysis of its pathway interactions in research and clinical settings.

Altered EGF signaling is associated with increased risk of certain cancers and inflammatory diseases. Overexpression or mutations in the EGF-EGFR axis can lead to the progression of carcinomas such as those found in the lung and breast as well as disorders like psoriasis. These aberrant signaling events are often linked with other proteins such as HER2 and VEGF which can exacerbate disease severity. The study and detection of EGF products therefore offer significant insights into both the progression and potential therapeutic targeting of these conditions.

Target data

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. Can induce neurite outgrowth in motoneurons of the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis in vitro (PubMed : 10964941).
