General description

PROX1 (Prospero homeobox protein 1), the homolog of Drosophila Prospero, is a homeobox-containing transcription factor that binds and functions as a co-receptor of liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH1/NR5A2). It is a specific marker for lymphatic endothelial cells, as well as hepatoblasts and hepatocytes. Human Prox1 shares 97% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat Prox1.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of human Prospero homeobox protein 1/PROX1.

Application

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:2,000 dilution from a representative lot detected Prospero homeobox protein 1/PROX1 in mouse E16 embryo thalamus tissues (Prof. Samual Pleasure, University of California, San Francisco.).

This Anti-Prospero homeobox protein 1/PROX1 Antibody is validated for use in western blotting & IHC for the detection of Prospero homeobox protein 1/PROX1.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in HEK293 nuclear extract.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:500 dilution of this antibody detected Prospero homeobox protein 1/PROX1 in 10 µg of HEK293 nuclear extract.

Target description

~95 kDa observed. Uniprot describes a molecular weight at 83 kDa However, this protein may be observed between 80-110 kDa due to sumoylation and/or alternative start sites (Pan, M. R., et al. (2009). J Cell Sci. 122(Pt18):3358-3361.; Azuma, K., et al. (2011). Genes Cells. 16(11):1063-1070.).

Animal modeling has played an important role in our understanding of the pathobiology of stroke. The vast majority of this research has focused on the acute phase following severe forms of stroke that result in clear behavioral deficits. Human stroke

Anxiety disorder is one of the most common comorbidities in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), but its neurobiological mechanisms remain unclear. Here we identified a novel target, interleukin-17A (IL-17A), which can contribute to TLE-associated anxiety. Epileptic seizures were induced in 6-week-old

Key pathological features of Parkinson's Disease (PD) include the progressive degeneration of midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons and hindbrain noradrenergic (NA) neurons. The loss of DA neurons has been extensively studied and is the main cause of motor dysfunction. Importantly, however
