General description

Autotaxin (also known as Enpp2), an exo-enzyme that is upregulated in various cancers such as breast and lung cancer, is a secreted protein integral to the production of the lipid signaling molecule, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Wutotaxin is synthesized as a pre-pro-enzyme and stimulates cell proliferation, cell motility, and angiogenesis. Studies have shown increased expression of autotaxin in tumors is associated with increased tumor aggressiveness.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes Autotaxin at the substrate binding region.

Immunogen

Epitope: Substrate binding region
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human Autotaxin at the substrate binding region.

Application

Detect Autotaxin using this Anti-Autotaxin Antibody validated for use in WB, IH(P).
Western Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL from a representative lot detected Autotaxin in 10 µg of oligodendrocyte precursor cell lysate. Western Blot performed with Tween.

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:400 dilution from a representative lot detected Autotaxin in human cerebral cortex and ductal carcinoma tissues.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in oligodendrocyte precursor cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected Autotaxin in 10 µg of oligodendrocyte precursor cell lysate. Western Blot performed without Tween.

Target description

~100/125 kDa observed.
3 isoforms are produced by alternative splicing with molecular weights of 99, 105, and 101 kDa The calculated molecular weight of this protein is 99 kDa, but can be observed at ~125 kDa due to high glycosylation. An uncharacterized band may appear at ~35 kDa in some lysates.

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), acting in an autocrine or paracrine fashion through G protein-coupled receptors, has been implicated in many physiologic and pathologic processes, including cancer. LPA is converted from lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) by the secreted phospholipase autotaxin (ATX). Although various cell

The inflammatory mediator lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to induce acute gliosis in neonatal mice. However, the progressive effects on the murine neurodevelopmental program over the week that follows systemic inflammation are not known. Thus, we investigated the effects of
