Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin embedded human bladder cancer with purified ab124824 at a working dilution of 1/500. The secondary antibody used is ab97051, a HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L), at a dilution of 1/500. The sample is counter-stained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was perfomed using Tris-EDTA buffer, pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control, and is shown in the inset.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-CXCR4 antibody [UMB2] (AB124824)

Characterization of UMB-2 (ab124824) by immunofluorescent staining of transfected cells. HEK-293 cells expressing CCR7 or CXCR4 were either not exposed or exposed to 100 ng/ml MIP-3 or 100 ng/ml SDF-1 for 30 min, subsequently fixed and immunofluorescently stained with 1 μg/ml anti-CCR7 {1188} or anti-CXCR4 {UMB-2} at a dilution of 1∶100. Note that UMB-2 detected prominent immunofluorescence at the level of the plasma membrane only in CXCR4- but not in CCR7-expressing cells, and that SDF-1 exposure induced a rapid translocation of CXCR4 receptor immunostaining from the plasma membrane into the cytosol. Representative results from one of three independent experiments are shown. Scale bar, 20 μm.

Immunohistochemistry analysis of cryosections from carotid endarterectomy specimens labeling CXCR4 with ab124824 at 1/300 dilution. CXCR4 expression in a representative inflamed carotid plaque lesion. Brightfield micrographs showed brown chemoimmunoreactive CXCR4 and CD68 (macrophage) staining. Co-localized CXCR4 and CD68 expression was observed in these two adjacent sections.

Western blot analysis of the specificity of anti-CXCR4 antibodies. Membrane preparations from HEK-293 cells stably transfected to express either CCR7 or CXCR4 were separated on 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gels and blotted onto nitrocellulose membranes. Membranes were then incubated with affinity-purified 1 μg/ml anti-CCR7 {1188} or anti-CXCR4 {UMB-2} hybridoma supernatant at a dilution of 1∶100. Blots were developed using enhanced chemiluminescence. Note that UMB-2 detected a band of the expected molecular weight only in CXCR4- but not in CCR7-transfected cells. Two additional experiments gave similar results.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes only the non-phosphorylated C-terminus of CXCR4 (residues 341-352). Phosphorylation of S346/347 blocks antibody binding. PMID: 24154522, 25451233.

We recommend dephosphorylation of samples using lambda phosphatase treatment. Please refer to application notes.

Target Information
CXCR4 (fusin), also known as C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 or CD184, is a protein encoded by the CXCR4 gene in humans. CXCR4 or CD184 protein is a receptor for the chemokine CXCL12 (SDF-1) and plays a significant role in oncology due to its involvement in tumor growth, metastasis, and the tumor microenvironment. CXCR4 and its ligand CXCL12 are crucial for the metastatic spread of cancer cells to organs where CXCL12 is expressed, such as the bone marrow, liver, and lungs. The CXCR4-CXCL12 axis helps tumor cells find niches that support their survival and growth.

CXCR4 also known as C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 is a G protein-coupled receptor that is involved in signal transduction. It has a molecular weight of approximately 41 kDa. CXCR4 is ubiquitously expressed across various tissues including immune cells like T and B lymphocytes as well as in bone marrow brain and heart. It binds specifically with the ligand CXCL12 also known as stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) facilitating responses such as cell migration and proliferation.
Biological function summary

CXCR4 plays an important role in the immune system hematopoiesis and angiogenesis. It does not function alone and is often part of a larger protein complex where it recruits and activates other G proteins. The receptor mediates chemotactic responses directing cells to sites of inflammation or injury. Its interaction with CXCL12 is critical for maintaining immune surveillance aiding in the movement and positioning of immune cells.

Pathways

CXCR4 integrates into significant cellular signaling pathways such as the PI3K/AKT pathway and the MAPK pathway. It collaborates closely with signaling proteins like AKT1 and MAPK1 impacting cell survival and growth. These pathways are essential for various cellular functions including cell cycle progression and apoptosis regulation. The cross-talk between CXCR4 and these pathways underlines its influence on cell fate decisions.

CXCR4 is implicated in cancer metastasis and HIV entry into cells. Overexpression of CXCR4 is observed in several cancers contributing to tumor growth and metastasis. The interaction between CXCR4 and CXCL12 facilitates the infiltration and spread of cancer cells. Additionally in HIV CXCR4 serves as a coreceptor along with CD4 allowing the virus to enter and infect host cells. Both cancer and HIV illustrate CXCR4's central role in disease progression and pathogenesis.

Target data

Receptor for the C-X-C chemokine CXCL12/SDF-1 that transduces a signal by increasing intracellular calcium ion levels and enhancing MAPK1/MAPK3 activation (PubMed : 10452968, PubMed : 18799424, PubMed : 24912431, PubMed : 28978524). Involved in the AKT signaling cascade (PubMed : 24912431). Plays a role in regulation of cell migration, e.g. during wound healing (PubMed : 28978524). Acts as a receptor for extracellular ubiquitin; leading to enhanced intracellular calcium ions and reduced cellular cAMP levels (PubMed : 20228059). Binds bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) et mediates LPS-induced inflammatory response, including TNF secretion by monocytes (PubMed : 11276205). Involved in hematopoiesis and in cardiac ventricular septum formation. Also plays an essential role in vascularization of the gastrointestinal tract, probably by regulating vascular branching and/or remodeling processes in endothelial cells. Involved in cerebellar development. In the CNS, could mediate hippocampal-neuron survival (By similarity).. (Microbial infection) Acts as a coreceptor (CD4 being the primary receptor) for human immunodeficiency virus-1/HIV-1 X4 isolates and as a primary receptor for some HIV-2 isolates. Promotes Env-mediated fusion of the virus (PubMed : 10074122, PubMed : 10756055, PubMed : 8849450, PubMed : 8929542, PubMed : 9427609).
