Scientific Data Images for Human PTGER2 Antibody

PTGER2 antibody in Human Bladder by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

PTGER2 in Human Bladder.

PTGER2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human bladder using Human PTGER2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6656) at 25 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Mouse HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS002) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Strongest staining was localized to umbrella cells.

Detection of Human PTGER2 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human PTGER2 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line. PVDF Membrane was probed with 2 µg/mL of Human PTGER2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6656) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). A specific band was detected for PTGER2 at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Background: PTGER2

Prostaglandin E2 receptor (PTGER2) is a 53 kDa member of the G-protein coupled receptor family of proteins. Human PTGER2 is 358 amino acids (aa) in length and has the seven putative transmembrane domains characteristic of G-protein coupled receptors. In addition, there are four potential sites for N-linked glycosylation.  Human PTGER2 shares 86% and 83% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat PTGER2, respectively. PTGER2 is present in the vasculature, the gastrointestinal, tracheobronchial, and reproductive tracts, the kidney, and also in the sphincter, dilator, and ciliary muscles in the eye.  PTGER2 is linked to prostaglandin E2-mediated vasodilation and smooth muscle relaxation. It is also involved in the stimulation of secretion in the stomach and small intestine, the control of intraocular pressure, and the regulation of bone resorption.
