Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Aromatase Antibody [NB100-1596]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Aromatase Antibody [NB100-1596] - U2OS cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes and permeabilized in 0.05% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 minutes. The cells were incubated with anti-Aromatase Antibody NB100-1596 at 2 ug/ml overnight at 4C and detected with an anti-rabbit Dylight 488 (Green) at a 1:1000 dilution for 60 minutes. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Cells were imaged using a 100X objective and digitally deconvolved.

Background: Aromatase

Aromatase (ARO1) or cytochrome P450 19A1 (CYP19A1) belongs to cytochrome P450 family of enzymes, which are monooxygenases known for their essential role in drug catabolism and cholesterol/steroid synthesis. Employing heme-group act as a co-factor, ARO1 catalyzes aromatic C18 estrogens formation from C19 androgens and is responsible for conversion of testosterone to estradiol and androstenedione to estrone. ARO1 is localized to cellular membranes as a peripheral membrane protein and in addition to female reproductive tract and adipose tissue, aromatase can be found in testis, liver, brain as well as certain tumors including breast cancer. During ontogenesis, it plays an important role in the development of CNS and gonads as well as sex differentiation. Defective ARO1 may leads to aromatase excess syndrome (AEXS) and aromatase deficiency (AROD). Moreover, obesity has been linked to abnormally high ARO1 expression in mammary tissues, increased local estrogen production, and susceptibility to breast hyperplasia and cancer. ARO1 is the key enzyme in intratumoral estrogen production in postmenopausal mammary cancer.
