{"product_id":"biolegend-648861","title":"Biolegend, 648861, Ultra-LEAF™ Purified anti-human CD309 (VEGFR2) Antibody, 1mg","description":"\u003cp\u003eVEGF family includes five members, VEGFA (VEGFA165), VEGFB, VEGFC, VEGFD, and placenta growth factor (PlGF). Structurally, these growth factors are homodimers, although heterodimers have been described in complexes that are comprised of VEGFA and PIGS. There are three VEGF receptor tyrosine kinases: VEGFR1 (Flt1), VEGFR2 (Flk1), and VEGFR3 (Flt4). VEGFR1 is expressed on monocytes and macrophages, VEGFR2 on vascular endothelial cells, and VEGFR3 on lymphatic endothelial cells. VEGFR2 also binds proteolytically processed VEGFC and VEGFD. VEGFR2 is the major mediator of the signaling cascades that regulate endothelial cell functions including proliferation, migration and differentiation. Soluble VEGFR2 was initially identified in mouse and human plasma resulting from an endothelial cell surface proteolytic cleavage. VEGFA stimulates ADAM17-dependent shedding of VEGFR2. In addition, its shedding is stimulated by phorbol ester (PMA) and the calcium ionophore, ionomycin. Soluble VEGF1 and VEGFR2 can act as decoy receptors for VEGFA, regulating the availability of the same. In addition, alternative splicing of VEGFR2 produces soluble VEGFR2 that binds VEGFC and subsequently prevents lymph angiogenesis. It has been reported that decreased levels of VEGFR2 in the plasma of preeclamptic women may serve as a marker of endothelial cell dysfunction.\u003cbr\u003e\n1mg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Recombinant Human VEGFR2-Fc\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: 0.2 µm filtered in phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing no preservative.\u003cbr\u003e\nEndotoxin Level: Less than 0.01 EU\/μg of the protein (less than 0.001 ng\/μg of the protein) as determined by the LAL test\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The Ultra-LEAF™ (Low Endotoxin, Azide-Free) antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: The antibody is bottled at the concentration indicated on the vial, typically between 2 mg\/mL and 3 mg\/mL.

However, upon request, this can be tested on a custom basis with an outside, independent laboratory.\u003cbr\u003e\nQ: Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody by functional assay?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: No, BioLegend does not test Ultra-LEAF™ antibodies by functional assays unless otherwise indicated. Due to the possible complexities and variations of uses of biofunctional antibodies in different assays and because of the large product portfolio, BioLegend does not currently perform functional assays as a routine QC for the antibodies. However, we do provide references in which the antibodies were used for functional assays and we do perform QC to verify the specificity and quality of the antibody based on our strict specification criteria.\u003cbr\u003e\nQ: Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for potential pathogens?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: No, BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house unless otherwise indicated.  However, we can recommend an outside vendor to perform this testing as needed.\u003cbr\u003e\nQ: Have you tested this Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for in vivo or in vitro applications?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: We don't test our antibodies for in vivo or in vitro applications unless otherwise indicated. Depending on the product, the TDS may describe literature supporting usage of a particular product for bioassay. It may be best to further consult the literature to find clone specific information.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biolegend","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46866428952745,"sku":"648861","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/biolegend-648861","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
