Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Growth Hormone antibody (AB126882)

GH1 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of rat brain tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 µg/ml ab126882 overnight at 4°C. Peroxidase Conjugated Goat Anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using HRP Conjugated Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit with DAB as the chromogen.

Western blot - Anti-Growth Hormone antibody (AB126882)

Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with ab126882 at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1% Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for GH1 at approximately 22 kDa.

Supplementary information

Growth Hormone (GH) also known as somatotropin is a polypeptide hormone with a mass of approximately 22 kDa. The pituitary gland synthesizes and secretes GH. Once synthesized GH circulates in the bloodstream and affects various tissues throughout the body. GH's expression is tightly regulated because of its significant roles in growth processes. Researchers might use anti-growth hormone antibodies and various hGH testing kits including ELISA to study its levels and functions.
Biological function summary

GH triggers growth and cell reproduction by exerting effects on multiple tissues. It binds to the growth hormone receptor which initiates a cascade of reactions that ultimately stimulates growth in muscle bone and cartilage. GH also contributes to protein synthesis and helps regulate metabolism. GH acts mostly independently but can interact with cytokines and other hormones.

Pathways

GH plays important roles in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and the IGF-1 signaling pathway. The JAK-STAT pathway is important for transmitting the signal of GH binding to its receptor into cellular responses. GH stimulates IGF-1 production in the liver and IGF-1 then acts in an endocrine manner to mediate much of GH’s growth-promoting activity. These interactions highlight the interconnectedness of GH with other hormones in growth signaling networks.

Several health conditions can arise from abnormal levels of GH. Dwarfism occurs due to GH deficiency while acromegaly results from GH excess. Clinical analysis might use hGH kits to measure hormone levels and aid in diagnosis. GH's role in such conditions links it to other hormones like insulin and glucagon that help regulate glucose levels further affecting metabolic processes. Recombinant forms of GH are used in therapy for these disorders providing avenues for treatment and management.

Target data

Plays an important role in growth control. Its major role in stimulating body growth is to stimulate the liver and other tissues to secrete IGF1. It stimulates both the differentiation and proliferation of myoblasts. It also stimulates amino acid uptake and protein synthesis in muscle and other tissues.
