Metadherin monoclonal antibody Background :
Lyric/AEG-1 (Astrocyte Elevated Gene 1)/MTDH (Metadherin) was identified as a tight junction (TJ) protein based on its localization to TJ proteins in polarized epithelium. Differential subcellular localization and overexpression of Lyric/AEG-1/MTDH has been seen in multiple human cancers. Lyric/AEG-1/MTDH is involved in signaling pathways related to various cellular functions including proliferation and apoptosis/survival, and its alteration in cancer is associated with poor prognosis. In breast cancer, increased Lyric/AEG-1/MTDH may confer increased chemoresistance as well as metastasis. Lyric/AEG-1/MTDH expression is important in signaling and disease progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Product :

• 
  Western blot analysis of Metadherin expression in Jurkat (A), A549 (B), MCF7 (C), Hela (D) whole cell lysates.
• 
  Immunohistochemical analysis of Metadherin staining in human liver formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.71). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
