- Extra Details:
- Inhibin, alpha is a glycoprotein which acts to suppress follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion (Groome et al, 1990). Inhibin alpha is expressed in a range of tissues including the endometrium (Mylonas et al, 2004), brain (Uccella et al, 2000), adrenal gland (McCluggage et al, 1998), testis (Bergh and Cajander, 1990) and ovary (Cuevas et al, 1987, Yamoto et al, 1992). The antibody may be of value in the differentiation of adrenocortical tumors, placental and gestational trophoblastic lesions, and sex cord stromal tumors (McCluggage, 2001). In western blotting of bovine follicular fluid, bands at 20, 44 and 57 kD were reported under reducing conditions using 214916 (Groome et al, 1991). Applications: Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Immunohistochemistry (frozen and paraffin): neat, 1:100. Requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment prior to staining of paraffin sections using sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Immunohistochemistry Positive Control Tissue: Normal human ovary/testis Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
