Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Urokinase antibody [EPR6273] - BSA and Azide free (AB236060)

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human kidney tissue labelling Urokinase with purified ab133563 at 1/150. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9. A prediluted HRP-polymer conjugated anti-rabbit IgG was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control using PBS instead of primary antibody. Counterstained with Hematoxylin.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab133563).

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.

Supplementary information

Urokinase also known as urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is a serine protease with a molecular mass of approximately 54 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues including the kidneys liver and blood vessels. Urokinase initially forms as pro-urokinase an inactive precursor that can convert into the active enzyme. Researchers often use assays like the direct assay to measure urokinase activity due to its role in breaking down fibrin and modulating cell adhesion and migration.
Biological function summary

Something particularly interesting about urokinase is its role in converting plasminogen to plasmin a critical enzyme in the process of fibrinolysis. Moreover it is part of a larger enzymatic complex involving the urokinase receptor (uPAR) which localizes plasminogen activation to cell surfaces. This complex mediates extracellular matrix degradation aiding in important cellular processes like tissue remodeling and wound healing.

Pathways

Urokinase plays a critical role in the fibrinolytic pathway which involves the breakdown of blood clots. It also interacts with the extracellular matrix pathway by activating plasminogen which can degrade matrix components. In these pathways urokinase closely interacts with proteins such as plasmin and its inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) which regulate the activity and localization of proteolytic events.

Urokinase is strongly linked to conditions such as deep vein thrombosis and cancer metastasis. Its overexpression or dysregulation often leads to excessive tissue degradation influencing metastasis progression. Urokinase is connected to the urokinase receptor (uPAR) in cancer facilitating cancer cell invasion and migration. Understanding its behavior in these contexts is critical for developing therapeutic strategies and targeting treatments against these diseases.
