Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Smad4 antibody [EP618Y] - BSA and Azide free (AB215968)
Unpurified ab40759 staining Smad4 in rat femur tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 1% BSA for 20 minutes at 22°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a citrate buffer pH6.0. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/200 in blocking buffer) for 2 hours at 20°C. An undiluted HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal (1/250) was used as the secondary antibody.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab40759).

Western blot - Anti-Smad4 antibody [EP618Y] - BSA and Azide free (AB215968)
This WB data was generated using the same anti-Smad4 antibody clone, EP618Y, in a different buffer formulation (cat# ab40759).
Lane 1 : Wild type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 2 : SMAD4 knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 3 : HepG2 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 4 : Jurkat whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab40759 observed at 60 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.
ab40759 was shown to specifically react with SMAD4 in wild type HAP1 cells. No band was observed when SMAD4 knockout HAP1 samples were used. Wild-type and SMAD4 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab40759 and ab9484 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Biological function summary
Smad4 influences cell proliferation differentiation and apoptosis by mediating signals from TGF-beta cytokines. It is part of the Smad protein family acting as a transcriptional controller. Upon TGF-beta receptor activation Smad4 forms complexes with Smad2 and Smad3 translocating to the nucleus to regulate genes imperative for cellular homeostasis. Its role in cell cycle regulation underlines its contribution to normal cellular functions and its potential involvement in disorders.
Pathways
Smad4 operates within the TGF-beta pathway linking extracellular signals to nuclear transcription alterations. It participates in the regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) a process important for development and tumor progression. In these pathways Smad4 interacts closely with Smad2 and Smad3 orchestrating various cellular responses to external stimuli through transcriptional management.
