Western blot - Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (AB307601)
Western blot : Anti-SLC7A11 antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in black; Mouse anti-CANX [CANX/1543] (ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 35 kDa in wild-type HepG2 cell lysates with a reduction in signal observed at this size in SLC7A11 heterozygous knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and SLC7A11 heterozygous knockout HepG2 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times before development with a high-sensitivity ECL substrate kit and imaged with 16 minutes exposure time. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit HRP (H+L) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Product details
Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) was developed by Abcam using patented rabbit monoclonal antibody technology and is validated for use in Flow Cyt (Intra), ICC/IF, IHC-P, IP and WB.
Abcam's high quality manufacturing and validation processes ensure Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) has high sensitivity and specificity alongside high lot-to-lot consistency and reproducibility.
Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) specifically detects xCT (UniProt ID: Q9UPY5; Molecular weight: 56kDa) and is sold in a convenient trial size to enable initial testing (20 µL) and larger sizes for subsequent scaling up experiments (100 µL and 1 mL).
Conjugation-ready, carrier free format available for antibody clone EPR27115-64 - ab307602.
A highly validated xCT (SLC7A11) antibody, essential for studying the cystine/glutamate antiporter SLC7A11, ferroptosis and redox balance. This antibody is crucial in cancer research, particularly in understanding xCT's role in tumor progression and antioxidant defense and is widely used in studies of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and xCT inhibitors for therapeutic applications. SLC7A11 is frequently overexpressed in human cancers. SLC7A11 promotes cystine uptake and glutathione biosynthesis, resulting in protection from oxidative stress and ferroptotic cell death. Recent studies have unexpectedly revealed that SLC7A11 also plays critical roles in glutamine metabolism and regulates the glucose and glutamine dependency of cancer cells. Expression of SLC7A11/xCT correlates with advanced lung cancer stage and predicted a worse 5-year survival.
