Gene Information
human ... ITGA2(3673)
Specificity
Human alpha2 integrin subunit. Specificity determined by immunoprecipitation from a detergent extract of 35S methionine labeled endothelial cells. The epitope recognized is on the cytoplasmic domain of the protein and is thus intracellular. Shows no cross-reactivity to alpha1, alpha3, alpha4, alpha5, alpha6, or alphaV subunits.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide derived from the COOH terminal sequence (cytoplasmic domain) of the human alpha2 integrin subunit {KYEKMTKNPDEODETTELSS}
Application
Anti-Integrin α2 Antibody detects level of Integrin α2 & has been published & validated for use in ELISA, IF, IH, IP, RIA & WB.
Immunofluorescence: 1:500 (suggested for use on acetone-fixed tissue only)
ELISA/RIA: 1:1000
Western blot: 1:1000 The antibody has been used to report alpha2 expression in HUVECs during tubule-like structure formation in collagen (Deroanne, 1996). Recognizes ~160kDa alpha 2 subunit
Immunoprecipitation: 5 μL precipitates alpha2/beta1 from 5 x 106 cells.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:500
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) metastasis dissemination to secondary sites represents the critical point for the patient's survival. The microenvironment is crucial to cancer progression, influencing tumour cell behaviour by modulating the expression and activation of molecules such as integrins, the cell-extracellular

Over the past decade, great strides have been made in identifying gene aberrations and deregulated pathways that are associated with specific disease states. These association studies guide experimental studies aimed at identifying the aberrant genes and networks that cause the
Core3 O-glycan synthase suppresses tumor formation and metastasis of prostate carcinoma PC3 and LNCaP cells through down-regulation of alpha2beta1 integrin complex.

Integrins are heterodimeric cell-surface adhesion molecules comprising one of 18 possible α-chains and one of eight possible β-chains. They control a range of cell functions in a matrix- and ligand-specific manner. Integrins can be internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) through
