Product Summary for Human Phospho-Tie-2 DuoSet IC ELISA

This DuoSet IC ELISA contains the basic components required for the development of sandwich ELISAs to measure tyrosine-phosphorylated human Tie-2 in cell lysates. An immobilized capture antibody specific for Tie-2 binds both phosphorylated and unphosphorylated Tie-2 . After washing away unbound material, a biotinylated detection antibody is used to detect only phosphorylated receptor, utilizing a standard HRP format.

Scientific Data Images for Human Phospho-Tie-2 DuoSet IC ELISA

Figure 1. The Human Phospho-Tie-2 DuoSet IC ELISA is more sensitive than immunoprecipitation (IP)-Western analysis

Human Tie-2 transfected Baf/3 cells (Baf/3-hTie-2) were treated with 600 ng/mL recombinant human Ang-1 for seven minutes to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Tie-2. Serial dilutions of lysates were analyzed by (A) IP-Western blot and (B) this ELISA. IPs were done using an anti-Tie-2 monoclonal antibody and goat anti-mouse agarose. Immunoblots were incubated with a biotinylated anti-phosphotyrosine monoclonal antibody (Catalog # BAM1676) to detect phospho-Tie-2. Bands were visualized with Streptavidin-HRP (Cat # DY998) followed by chemiluminescent detection using WesternGloTM Chemiluminescent Detection Substrate (Catalog # AR004).

Figure 2. The Human Phospho-Tie-2 DuoSet IC ELISA detects ligand-induced Tie-2 tyrosine phosphorylation

Baf/3-hTie-2 cells were untreated or treated with 600 ng/mL recombinant human Ang-1 for seven minutes. ELISA and IP-Western blot (inset) analyses were done using 50 μg and 200 μg of lysate, respectively. IP-Western blots for phospho-Tie-2 (p-Tie-2) were done as described in Figure 1. Blots were stripped and total Tie-2 was detected using a biotinylated anti-Tie-2 polyclonal antibody (Catalog # BAF313). Human Phospho-Tie-2 can be detected in this ELISA by using approximately 4 times less lysate than is needed for a conventional IP-Western blot.

Figure 3. The specificity of the Human Phospho-Tie-2 DuoSet IC ELISA is confirmed by receptor competition

Baf/3-hTie-2 cells were treated with 600 ng/mL recombinant human Ang-1 for seven minutes. The indicated amounts of recombinant extracellular domains of human Tie-2(Catalog #313-TI), human Tie-1 (Catalog #619-TI), human VEGF R2 (Catalog #357-KD) or human VEGF R3 (Catalog #321-FL) were added to 50 μg lysate and analyzed using this ELISA. Competition was observed only with recombinant Tie-2.

Background: Tie-2

Tie-2, also known as Tek, is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that functions as a receptor for Angiopoietin family proteins. It is expressed by embryonic and adult endothelial cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and a circulating population of proangiogenic monocytes. Tie-2 signaling is activated by Angiopoietins-1 and -4, while it can be either activated or inhibited by Angiopoietins-2 and -3. Tie-2 plays an important role in maintaining vascular integrity by mediating endothelial cell-smooth muscle cell communication and inhibiting endothelial cell apoptosis. It is also required for embryonic development of the endocardium. In addition, Tie-2 signaling mediates the quiescence of bone marrow stem cells in response to osteoblast-produced Angiopoietin-1. This quiescence is critical for maintaining an ongoing hematopoietic capability in the bone marrow.
