Validation Data Gallery

• 

  WB analysis of HeLa using 60198-1-Ig (same clone as 60198-1-PBS)

  HeLa cells were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 60198-1-Ig (RXRA antibody) at dilution of 1:100 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours. This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 60198-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IHC staining of human stomach cancer using 60198-1-Ig (same clone as 60198-1-PBS)

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human stomach cancer tissue slide using 60198-1-Ig (RXRA antibody) at dilution of 1:200 (under 10x lens). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 60198-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human stomach cancer tissue slide using 60198-1-Ig (RXRA antibody) at dilution of 1:200 (under 40x lens). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 60198-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IHC staining of rat liver using 60198-1-Ig (same clone as 60198-1-PBS)

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded rat liver tissue slide using 60198-1-Ig (RXRA antibody) at dilution of 1:200 (under 10x lens).

Background Information

Retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRA). Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high-affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid. RXRA serves as a common heterodimeric partner for a number of nuclear receptors. The RXR/RAR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. In the absence of a ligand, the RXR-RAR heterodimers associate with a multiprotein complex containing transcription corepressors that induce histone acetylation, chromatin condensation, and transcriptional suppression. On ligand binding, the corepressors dissociate from the receptors and associate with the coactivators leading to transcriptional activation. The RXRA/PPARA heterodimer is required for PPARA transcriptional activity on fatty acid oxidation genes such as ACOX1 and the P450 system genes. This antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against the 350 AA of human RXRA C-terminal. RXRA is highly expressed in the liver, and also expressed in the lungs, kidneys, and heart. It can recognize the the mature 54 kDa RXRA and the truncated 44 kD RXRA (PMID: 20541701).
