Description

General description

The antibody neutralizes receptor-ligand interaction. At 0.5-2 μg/mL the antibody will block 50% of the binding of 5 ng/mL recombinant human HGF to 0.1 μg immobilized recombinant human HGF R/c-MET Fc chimera. >90% of the binding will be blocked by 10 μg/mL of the antibody.

Immunogen

purified recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor receptor extracellular domain expressed in mouse NSO cells.

Application

Anti-Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (c-Met) antibody produced in goat was used to block c-Met in HeLa cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is a multifunctional, heparin-binding factor that stimulates the proliferation of liver cells. The cellular effects of HGF are mediated by its receptor, c-Met, that leads to significant activation of ERK, Src/FAK, STAT3 and PI3K signaling. Various functions of the HGF/c-Met signaling include proliferation, cell survival, motility and adhesion and tissue regeneration. Apart from liver, HGF also mediates regeneration of kidney, lung and gastro-intestines.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline containing carbohydrates.
