Thyroid Peroxidase monoclonal antibody Background :
The synthesis of thyroid hormones is an oxidative process that produces reactive oxygen species and requires Thyroperoxidase (TPO), a hemoprotein that is one of the major autoantigens involved in autoimmune thyroid diseases. Thyroperoxidase is a 933 amino acid, type I transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a key role in thyroid hormone synthesis and autoimmunity. TPO catalyzes the iodination of proteins, therefore causing iodide retention within thyroid cells. The ecto-domain of Thyroperoxidase includes a large N-terminal myeloperoxidase-like domain, followed by a complement control protein domain and an epidermal growth factor-like domain. Thyroperoxidase also mediates the organification and intracellular retention of radioiodide, which may lead to rapid tumor cell death. Mutations of the Thyroperoxidase gene commonly lead to goitrous congenital hypothyroidism, the most severe and frequent abnormality in thyroid iodide organification defect (IOD), in which iodide in the thyroid gland cannot be oxidized and/or bound to the protein.

• 
• 
  Immunohistochemical analysis of Thyroid Peroxidase staining in human follicular thyroid carcinoma formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). 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.
