  • General notes


    This clone (MP6-XT22) is reported to neutralise the effects of mouse TNF alpha.

    The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years. Abcam is leading the way in addressing the problem with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation.

    One factor contributing to the crisis is the use of antibodies that are not suitable. This can lead to misleading results and the use of incorrect data informing project assumptions and direction. To help address this challenge, we have introduced an application and species grid on our primary antibody datasheets to make it easy to simplify identification of the right antibody for your needs.

Properties

Target

  • Function

    Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. It is mainly secreted by macrophages and can induce cell death of certain tumor cell lines. It is potent pyrogen causing fever by direct action or by stimulation of interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia, Under certain conditions it can stimulate cell proliferation and induce cell differentiation.

  • Involvement in disease

    Genetic variations in TNF are a cause of susceptibility psoriatic arthritis (PSORAS) [MIM:607507]. PSORAS is an inflammatory, seronegative arthritis associated with psoriasis. It is a heterogeneous disorder ranging from a mild, non-destructive disease to a severe, progressive, erosive arthropathy. Five types of psoriatic arthritis have been defined: asymmetrical oligoarthritis characterized by primary involvement of the small joints of the fingers or toes; asymmetrical arthritis which involves the joints of the extremities; symmetrical polyarthritis characterized by a rheumatoidlike pattern that can involve hands, wrists, ankles, and feet; arthritis mutilans, which is a rare but deforming and destructive condition; arthritis of the sacroiliac joints and spine (psoriatic spondylitis).

  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.

  • Post-translational
    modifications

    The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.
    The membrane form, but not the soluble form, is phosphorylated on serine residues. Dephosphorylation of the membrane form occurs by binding to soluble TNFRSF1A/TNFR1.
    O-glycosylated; glycans contain galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine and N-acetylneuraminic acid.

    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry and interest.

    As the datasheet indicates this product has been characterized on IHC-Fr (frozen section for immunohistochemistry) but NOT on IHC-P (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). The samples can be fixed with methanol, acetone or ethanol. We do not have any data yet if ab34719 is suitable for formalin or PFA-fixed tissue sections.

    If you need any further assistance in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry and your interest in our products. I can confirm that this antibody has been tested and characterized for in "in vitro" functional assay using cultured cells. I am very sorry to inform you that as the disclaimer states on the bottom of each of our datasheets: "all our products are for research use only and are not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic use". This means that we do not recommend our antibodies for "in vivo" studies and experiments; or for medical application. If you need any further assistance in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me.
