Scientific Data Images for Human NPRC/NPR3 Antibody

Detection of NPRC/NPR3 in HEK293 cells by Flow Cytometry.

HEK293 cells transfected with Human NPR3 and eGFP were stained with either (A) Mouse Anti-Human NPRC/NPR3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB102331) or (B) Mouse IgG2A Isotype Control (Catalog # MAB003) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B).

Detection of Human NPRC/NPR3 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of NCI-H460 human large cell lung carcinoma cell line, OVCAR-3 human ovarian carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human NPRC/NPR3 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB102331) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for NPRC/NPR3 at approximately 60 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.

Background: NPRC/NPR3

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Receptor-3 (NPR3), also known as NPRC or ANPR-C, is one of the three natriuretic peptide receptors (1, 2). Mature human NPR3 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that contains a 455 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD), a 23 aa transmembrane segment, and a 37 aa cytoplasmic region. Within the ECD, human NPR3 shares 92% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat NPR3. The natriuretic system is key to the maintenance of vascular tone and cardiovascular homeostasis. It consists of three related natriuretic peptides: atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). It also consists of three single-membrane-spanning receptors (NPRs) to mediate the biological activity of these peptides: NPR1, NPR2, and NPR3. NPR1 and NPR2 are guanylyl cyclase receptors that regulate cGMP levels, while NPR3 lacks enzymatic activity and may act as a clearance receptor (1, 2). Both ANP and BNP exhibit high binding affinities to NPR1 and NPR3, while CNP binds with high affinity to NPR2 and NPR3 (2). NPR3 is known to be expressed in the heart, lung, adrenal gland, heart, cerebral cortex, cerebellum, liver and adipocytes and in some cancers (1, 2). Osteocrin was found to be a specific ligand to NPR3 (3). NPR3 is necessary for Osteocrin to regulate femoral, tibial, and metatarsal bone elongation (4).
