Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human kidney tissue sections labeling P Glycoprotein with purified ab168337 at 1/100 dilution (14 μg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using EDTA Buffer, PH9. Hematoxylin was used to counter stain. ab97051, a Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) secondary antibody was used at 1/500 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the negative control.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab168337).

Lane 4 : HepG2 cell lysate (20 μg)

Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab168337 observed at 160 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.

ab168337 was shown to recognize P glycoprotein when P glycoprotein knockout samples were used, along with additional cross-reactive bands. Wild-type and P glycoprotein knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab168337 and ab8245 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted 1/500 and 1/10 000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Specificity

P-glycoprotein 1 (also known as Multidrug resistance protein

  1. has a predicted molecular weight of 141 kDa, however it has 3 potential glycosylation sites (N-linked) which may affect the migration of the protein. In our hands ab168337 detects a predominant protein band migrating in the region of 180-200 kDa and typically will demonstrate a smear on the membrane in the region of the 150 – 300 kDa due to the glycosylation profile of the protein. It may be necessary to optimise your cell or tissue lysis protocol to efficiently extract P-glycoprotein 1 as it is a multi-pass membrane protein. Abcam recommends not boiling the sample after lysis.

Supplementary information

P-glycoprotein also known as P-gp MDR1 transporter or ABCB1 is a well-characterized efflux transporter with a molecular mass of approximately 170 kDa. This protein is expressed in various normal tissues such as the liver intestine kidney blood-brain barrier and placenta. It is located on the cell membrane where it functions to expel a wide variety of substrates out of cells using energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. This capability of pumping out toxins and xenobiotics makes P-glycoprotein an important player in cellular detoxification.
Biological function summary

P-glycoprotein acts as a protective mechanism against toxic substances and drugs within the body. It is a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family which is critical for their ability to transport molecules across membranes. P-glycoprotein is not typically part of a larger protein complex but can interact with other membrane proteins to facilitate its function. Its role in drug metabolism and excretion is vital for maintaining the balance and elimination of harmful substances.

Pathways

P-glycoprotein plays a significant role in the pharmacokinetics of drugs within the body. This transporter is involved in the multi-drug resistance (MDR) pathway which impacts the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents. P-glycoprotein also interacts with other proteins like CYP3A4 which is involved in the metabolism of many drugs. These interactions affect the concentration and distribution of therapeutic agents contributing to the body's overall drug response.

P-glycoprotein is closely associated with multi-drug resistance in cancer where its overexpression can lead to reduced effectiveness of chemotherapy. It is also implicated in disorders of the central nervous system like epilepsy where it affects drug delivery to the brain. The protein has connections with CYP3A4 in these contexts where both together influence drug metabolism and efficacy complicating treatment regimens and therapeutic outcomes in these conditions.

Catalyzes the flop of phospholipids from the cytoplasmic to the exoplasmic leaflet of the apical membrane. Participates mainly to the flop of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, beta-D-glucosylceramides and sphingomyelins (PubMed : 8898203). Energy-dependent efflux pump responsible for decreased drug accumulation in multidrug-resistant cells (PubMed : 2897240, PubMed : 35970996, PubMed : 9038218).
