VEGF-A Antibody (200-401-B74) in WB
Western blot using Rocklands Protein-A Purified anti-bovine VEGF-A antibody shows detection of recombinant bovine VEGF-A at 17-19.2 kDa. Approximately 2 µg of recombinant protein was loaded per lane onto a 4-20% gradient gel followed by transfer to PVDF membrane. The membrane was blocked using 3% BSA (p/n BSA-30) diluted 1:10. The primary antibody was used at a 1:333 dilution and was incubated with the blot for 2h at room temperature. The membrane was washed and reacted with a 1:10,000 dilution of IRDye™800 Conjugated Affinity Purified G... View More

This antibody is specific for bovine VEGF-A protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with VEGF-A from bovine, pig, sheep, and macaque sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Partial reactivity is expected against human, horse, dog, cat, or guinea pig based on 95% homology; and to rat and mouse based on 93% homology. Cross-reactivity with VEGF-A from other sources has not been determined.
Target Information
VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) which is a 45 kDa homodimeric, disulfide-linked glycoprotein involved in angiogenesis which promotes tumor progression and metastasis. VEGF has a variety of effects on vascular endothelium, including the ability to promote endothelial cell viability, mitogenesis, chemotaxis, and vascular permeability. The VEGF family currently includes VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, VEGF-E, and PIGF. VEGF and its receptor system have been shown to be the fundamental regulators in the cell signaling of angiogenesis. Most tumors have the absolute requirement of angiogenesis, and VEGF has been described as the most potent angiogenic cytokine linked to this process. To date 5 different isoforms of VEGF have been described. These isoforms are generated as the result of alternative splicing from a single VEGF gene. These various isoforms have been shown to bind to two tyrosine-kinase receptors flt-1 (VEGFR-1) and flk-1/KDR (VEGFR-2), which have been found to be expressed almost exclusively on endothelial cells. VEGF and its high-affinity binding receptors, the tyrosine kinases FLK1 and FLT1, are thought to be important for the development of embryonic vasculature. Studies have shown that an alternately spliced form of FLT1 produces a soluble protein, termed sFLT1, which binds vascular endothelial growth factor with high affinity, playing an inhibitory role in angiogenesis. Elevated levels of VEGF is linked to POEMS syndrome (Polyneuropathy, Organomegaly, Endocrinopathy, Monoclonal gammopathy, Skin changes) also known as Crow-Fukase syndrome which affects multiple organs in the body.
