Extra Details:: Pigment epithelium-derived growth factor (PEDF), also known as EPC-1 (early population doubling level cDNA-1), is a glycoprotein found naturally in the normal eye. PEDF has reported neuroprotective and differentiation properties and is secreted in abundance by retinal pigment epithelium cells. It belongs to the serine protease inhibitor (Serpin) superfamily and has been reported to inhibit angiogenesis and proliferation of several cell types. The “pooling” of PEDF within the interphotoreceptor matrix places this molecule in a prime physical location to affect the underlying neural retina. Additionally, PEDF induces neuronal differentiation and promotes survival of neurons of the central nervous system from degeneration caused by serum withdrawal or glutamate cytotoxicity. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Immunofluorescence/Immunocytochemistry and ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:500-1:2000, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in TBS, 5% milk, 0.1% Tween 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. Immunohistochemistry: 1:50-1:200 Immunofluorescence (IF-IC): 1:100-1:500 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
