General description

The vasoactive intestinal peptide/pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide receptor 1 (VPAC1) is a member of a class II subfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors and has a high affinity for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). VPAC1 has been associated with many different lung cancer cell lines. VPAC1 is thought to be activated by FXR and may contribute to the regulation of bile secretion to protect against gallstone disease. VPAC1 could be used to regulate VIPs and, in turn, inhibit breast cancer growth. VPAC1 has also been implicated in regulation of the anti-inflammatory effects of VIP.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes VPAC1 at the cytoplasmic domain.

Immunogen

Epitope: Cytoplasmic domain
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the cytoplasmic domain of VPAC1.

Application

Anti-VPAC1 Antibody detects level of VPAC1 & has been published & validated for use in IH(P) & WB.
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: 1:500 dilution from a previous lot detected VPAC1 in ovarian carcinoma tissue.
Research Category
Neuroscience
Research Sub Category
Hormones & Receptors

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in SK-OV-3 cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 1 µg/mL of this antibody detected VPAC1 on 10 µg of SK-OV-3 cell lysate.

Target description

~52 kDa observed. Multiple molecular weights of VPAC1 may be due to glycosylation. (Fabre, C, et al. (1993). Peptides. 14:483-489.)

Physical form

Affinity purified
Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at 2-8°C from date of receipt.

Analysis Note

Control
