Scientific Data Images for Human VEGF165 Antibody

Detection of Human VEGF antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human VEGF by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of human lung tissue, human kidney tissue, and human liver tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 5-10 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human VEGF 165Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-293-NA) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF017). A specific band was detected for VEGF at approximately 27 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
VEGF antibody in HUVEC Cells by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

VEGF in HUVEC Cells.

VEGF was detected in immersion fixed human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) using Goat Anti-Human VEGF165 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-293-NA) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; NL001) and counter-stained with DAPI (blue).

VEGF antibody in Human Liver Cancer Tissue by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

VEGF in Human Liver Cancer Tissue.

VEGF was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human liver cancer tissue using Goat Anti-Human VEGF165 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-293-NA) at 3 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (VC004). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (CTS013). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in cancer cells.

Background: VEGF

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF or VEGF-A), also known as Vascular Permeability Factor (VPF), is a potent mediator of both angiogenesis and vasculogenesis in the fetus and adult. It is a member of the PDGF family that is characterized by the presence of eight conserved cysteine residues and a cystine knot structure. VEGF165 appears to be the most abundant and potent isoform, followed by VEGF121 and VEGF189. Human VEGF165 is an approximately 44 kDa molecular weight homodimer sharing 88% aa sequence identity with corresponding regions of mouse and rat, 96% with porcine, 95% with canine, and 93% with feline, equine and bovine VEGF, respectively. VEGF binds the type I transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases VEGF R1 (also called Flt-1) and VEGF R2 (Flk-1/KDR) on endothelial cells. Although VEGF affinity is highest for binding to VEGF R1, VEGF R2 appears to be the primary mediator of VEGF angiogenic activity. VEGF165 binds the Semaphorin receptor, Neuropilin-1 and promotes complex formation with VEGF R2. VEGF is required during embryogenesis and functions to regulate the proliferation, migration, and survival of endothelial cells. In adults, VEGF functions mainly in wound healing and the female reproductive cycle. Pathologically, it is involved in tumor angiogenesis and vascular leakage. Circulating VEGF levels correlate with disease activity in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. VEGF is induced by hypoxia and cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, Oncostatin M (OSM) and TNF-alpha.
