{"product_id":"biolegend-613152","title":"Biolegend, 613152, Purified anti-human HGF Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eHGF is a dimeric molecule composed of the α-subunit and β-subunit, linked by a disulfide bond. The C-terminus of the α-subunit is followed directly by the N-terminus of the β-subunit. HGF protects the epithelium, neurons and cardiomyocytes during organ diseases. This protective effect is mediated through anti-apoptotic signals via inhibition of caspase-3 activity or induction of anti-apoptotic molecules, such as Bcl-xL. In addition, HGF prohibits Fas-mediated apoptosis signals via sequestration of Fas and Met receptor on cell surfaces. HGF also elicits the regression of fibrosis in numerous organs, such as scleroderma, cardiomyopathy, vocal scarring, and peritoneal fibrosis.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Human Recombinant HGF Protein\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/mL\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: Direct ELISA - Quality tested\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Direct ELISA. The optimal concentration of this reagent for the specific application and the experiment design should be established by the end-user.\u003cbr\u003e\nAdditional Product Notes: This product is intended for sandwich-based immunoassay development on various assay platforms requiring antibody pairs. This antibody (clone W19371A) could function as a detection antibody when paired with purified anti-human HGF antibody (Cat. No. 613052) (clone W19372J) as the capture antibody and using Recombinant Human HGF protein (Cat. Nos. 596401 and 596402) as the assay standard. For assay development flexibility purpose this product is provided as purified format.\u003cbr\u003e\nRRID: AB_3097163 (BioLegend Cat.
