results isotype of 1f1 clone was determined to be igg1, which reacted with native protein in the western blot experiment and stained 20% of the membrane of neoplastic cells overexpressing her2 with 3+ grade. however, 3l5 clone showed a low reaction (10%) with native her2 in immunohistochemistry. conclusions the results of both western blotting and immunohistochemistry showed that native her2 ca...

we have employed a peptide-based antibody generation protocol for producing antibody against human nestin. using a 12-mer synthetic peptide from repetitive region of human nestin protein devoid of any n- or o-glyco-sylation sequences, we generated a mouse monoclonal antibody capable of recognizing human, mouse, bovine, and rat nestin. a wide variety of nestin proteins ranging from 140-250 kda w...

objectives: tissue homeostasis is the result of strict regulatory mechanisms, which control self-renewal, differentiation, prevention of premature senescence and apoptosis of stem cells. bmi-1, a polycomb group repressor protein, represses genes that induce cellular senescence and cell death, and can contribute to cancer when improperly expressed. material and methods: bladder tumoral and nont...

ticks are important ectoparasites which are a considerable threat to human beings and to animals all overthe world. enormous economic losses annually occur in livestock production around the world as a result oftheir existance. one of the ways to control ticks and tick-borne diseases is to introduce resistance to theseectoparasites through immunization. for identification of the putative protec...

This study investigated the expression and distribution of 2810408A11Rik in mouse testis and sperm, and explored its role in spermatogenesis and sperm function. The expression levels of 2810408A11Rik mRNA in multiple tissue samples were analyzed using bioinformatic resources and RT-PCR technique. A specific rabbit polyclonal antibody was prepared by prokaryotic expression of 2810408A11Rik recom...

Alkaptonuria (AKU) results from defective homogentisate1,2-dioxygenase (HGD), causing degenerative arthropathy. The deposition of ochronotic pigment in joints is so far attributed to homogentisic acid produced by the liver, circulating in the blood and accumulating locally. Human normal and AKU osteoarticular cells were tested for HGD gene expression by RT-PCR, mono- and 2D-Western blotting. HG...
