Applications
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab46154 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
| Application | Abreviews | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| WB | Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 23 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 27 kDa). We recommend Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) secondary antibody. |
|
| ELISA | Use at an assay dependent concentration. |
Target
-
FunctionGrowth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. Induces endothelial cell proliferation, promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis and induces permeabilization of blood vessels. Binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin. NRP1/Neuropilin-1 binds isoforms VEGF-165 and VEGF-145. Isoform VEGF165B binds to KDR but does not activate downstream signaling pathways, does not activate angiogenesis and inhibits tumor growth.
-
Tissue specificityIsoform VEGF189, isoform VEGF165 and isoform VEGF121 are widely expressed. Isoform VEGF206 and isoform VEGF145 are not widely expressed.
-
Involvement in diseaseDefects in VEGFA are a cause of susceptibility to microvascular complications of diabetes type 1 (MVCD1) [MIM:603933]. These are pathological conditions that develop in numerous tissues and organs as a consequence of diabetes mellitus. They include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage renal disease, and diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic retinopathy remains the major cause of new-onset blindness among diabetic adults. It is characterized by vascular permeability and increased tissue ischemia and angiogenesis.
-
Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
-
Cellular localizationSecreted. VEGF121 is acidic and freely secreted. VEGF165 is more basic, has heparin-binding properties and, although a signicant proportion remains cell-associated, most is freely secreted. VEGF189 is very basic, it is cell-associated after secretion and is bound avidly by heparin and the extracellular matrix, although it may be released as a soluble form by heparin, heparinase or plasmin.

Western blot - Anti-VEGFA antibody (ab46154)Anti-VEGFA antibody (ab46154) at 1 µg/ml + HCT116 whole cell lysate at 20 µg
Secondary
Rabbit IgG secondary antibody at 1/10000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 27 kDa
Observed band size: 23 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
Exposure time: 2 minutesThis blot was produced using a 10% Bis-tris gel under the MES buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 35 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 5% Bovine Serum Albumin before being incubated with ab46154 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP, and visualised using ECL development solution.

ELISA - Anti-VEGFA antibody (ab46154)Ab46154 was tested using indirect ELISA. The wells were coated with peptide (1 µg x mL-1 at 100 µL per well) overnight at 4°C, followed by a 1% fat-free milk blocking step for 1 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody (ab46154) was added at a range of dilutions (50 µL per well) for 1 hour at room temperature. Ab97080 (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L-HRP) was used as a secondary antibody at 1:50.000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature and signal was developed with TMB substrate.
