Product Specifications
Size:
0.1 mg
Protein Information
Protein Name & Synonyms:
IGF1
Target Species:
- Human
Antibody Specifications
Concentration (lot specific):
IgG concentration 1.0mg/ml after reconstitution
Preparation:
Antisera to human IGF-I were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared from whole serum by affinity chromatography.
Reconstitution:
Reconstitute with 0.1ml distilled water. For long term storage the addition of 0.09% sodium azide is recommended. NB: For functional studies do not add azide.
Specificity
This product is specific for human IGF-I (Insulin-like Growth Factor I), a 70 amino acid secreted mitogenic polypeptide and member of the insulin gene family, produced primarily by the liver. IGF-I exhibits both autocrine and paracrine properties and has a widespread effect on cells including those of the bone, cartilage, muscle, nerves, skin, liver and lungs, playing a key role in cell proliferation and growth, inhibition of apoptosis and linked with tumour cell growth.
IGF-I signals through binding to the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) and also to the insulin receptor (IR), resulting in the activation of the AKT signalling pathway. Production of IGF-I is stimulated by growth hormone (GH) and can be hindered by GH insensitivity, deficiency in GH receptors or a malfunction in the post GH receptor signalling pathway.

Storage/Stability
Prior to reconstitution store at +4 °C.
After reconstitution store at -20 °C.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
If stored in this manner, this product is stable for 12 months after receipt.
