Immunocytochemistry analysis of MCF7 (Human breast adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) cells labeling Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA with Purified ab125001 at 1 : 500 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Cells were counterstained with ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor ® 594) 1 : 200 (2.5 μg/ml). ab150077 Goat anti rabbit IgG(Alexa Fluor ® 488) was used as the secondary antibody at 1 : 1000 dilution. DAPI nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.

The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab125001 at 0.2μg/ml concentration and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at 4°C followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green) and a goat secondary antibody to mouse IgG (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150120) at 2 μg/ml (shown in red).

We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Electro-acupuncture promotes the release of exosomal miR-146b in peri-ischemic striatum. (A) The expression of exosome-associated markers HSP70, TSG101, and CD81 were analyzed by Western blot. (B) The expression of markers were quantified on the basis of average band intensity (n = 4). (C) MiRNA microarray analysis of exosomes from peri-ischemic striatum and clustering of 25 significantly altered miRNAs with ≥1.5-fold difference in expression between MCAO and MCAO+EA groups. (D) Four miRNAs were significantly upregulated and 1 miRNA were downregulated in exosomes of the MCAO+EA group compared with the MCAO group were checked by RT-qPCR (n = 3).

Biological function summary
RXRA serves an important role in metabolic regulation especially in lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. It forms heterodimers with partners such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) enhancing its capacity to modulate various metabolic pathways. These heterodimers facilitate the transcription of genes that respond to nutritional changes. RXRA also influences immune responses and cell differentiation making it important for maintaining cellular health.
Pathways
RXRA operates within the retinoid signaling and lipid metabolism pathways. Through its interaction with PPARs particularly PPAR-γ and PPAR-α RXRA becomes an integral part of the signaling that controls fatty acid storage and glucose metabolism. These pathways influence cellular function and energy balance impacting the body's overall metabolic status.
