General description

Humanin (HN) is a small polypeptide, derived from mitochondria. This protein is secreted by various cells and is localized in the plasma and bound to the cell membranes.

Immunogen

peptide corresponding to the humanin protein (amino acids 9-24).

Application

Anti-Humanin (HN) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:
  • immunohistochemistry
  • immunoprecipitation (1:300)
  • fluorescent immunohistochemistry (1:300)
  • immunoblotting (1:500)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Humanin (HN) acts as a neuroprotective factor. It is involved in promoting cell survival. Humanin suppresses cell death in the neuronal cells caused by Alzheimer′s disease-related insults like anti-amyloid- precursor protein antibody, neurotoxic amyloid β (Aβ) peptides, and familial Alzheimer disease proteins.

Physical form

Solution of 1 mg/mL in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.02% sodium azide.

Skeletal muscle adapts to aerobic exercise training, in part, through fast-to-slow phenotypic shifts and an expansion of mitochondrial networks. Recent research suggests that the local and systemic benefits of exercise training also may be modulated by the mitochondrial-derived peptide, MOTS-c.
