Scientific Data Images for Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 Antibody

Detection of Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human EN‑RAGE/S100A12 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysate of human granulocytes. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1052) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF017). A specific band was detected for EN-RAGE/S100A12 at approximately 10 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
EN-RAGE/S100A12 antibody in Human Tonsil by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

EN-RAGE/S100A12 in Human Tonsil.

EN-RAGE/S100A12 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human tonsil using 15 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1052) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Detection of Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of human tonsil, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for EN-RAGE/S100A12 at approximately 11 kDa (as indicated) using 10 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human EN-RAGE/S100A12 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1052) . This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Background: EN-RAGE/S100A12

EN-RAGE, also known as S100A12 and Calgranulin C, is a 10 kDa member of the S100 (soluble in 100% saturated ammonium sulfate) family of EF-hand calcium-binding proteins. Like other S100 proteins, S100A12 is small and generally acidic (1-3). EN-RAGE forms noncovalent homodimers in the absence of divalent cations (4-6); calcium and zinc promote the formation of higher order assemblies including tetramers and hexamers (4, 7, 8). The ability of S100A12 to chelate zinc enables it to inhibit the zinc-dependent metalloproteases MMP-2, -3, and -9 (8). S100A12 also forms heterodimers with S100A9 and binds to RAGE (Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products), Annexin V, and several cytosolic enzymes involved in energy metabolism (9, 10). The hexameric form of EN-RAGE in particular binds RAGE with high affinity (7). EN-RAGE induces a variety of inflammatory responses including the in vivo recruitment of neutrophils, monocytes, and mast cells and the activation of mast cells and vascular endothelial cells (9, 11-14). EN-RAGE is found at elevated levels under inflammatory conditions such as asthma, gout, rheumatoid arthritis synovial fluid, and atherosclerosis (8, 12, 14). S100A12 also promotes neurite outgrowth in isolated hippocampal neurons (15). An ortholog of S100A12 has not been identified in rodents, but the human protein is functional in mice and rats (11-16).
