Anti-APOLIPOPROTEINC-III APOC3 Antibody

Anti Apolipoprotein C-III antibody recognizes the gene product of APOC. Apolipoprotein C-III is a protein component of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) . APOC3 inhibits lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase; it is thought to inhibit hepatic uptake of triglyceride-rich particles. The APOA1, APOC3 and APOA4 genes are closely linked in both rat and human genomes. The A-I and A-IV genes are transcribed from the same strand, while the A-1 and C-III genes are convergently transcribed. An increase in apoC-III levels induces the development of hypertriglyceridemia. This antibody is suitable for cardiovascular research.

This product has been prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography using immobilized antigens followed by extensive cross-adsorption against other apoLipoproteins and human serum proteins to remove any unwanted specificities. Typically less than 1% cross-reactivity against other types of apoLipoprotein was detected by ELISA against purified standards. This antibody reacts with human apoLipoprotein C-III and has negligible cross-reactivity with Type A-I, A-II, B, C-I, C-II, E and J apoLipoproteins. Specific cross reaction of anti-apoLipoprotein antibodies with antigens from other species has not been determined. Non-specific cross reaction of anti-apoLipoprotein antibodies with other human serum proteins is negligible.

Store vial at 4°C prior to opening. This product is stable 4°C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. For extended storage mix with an equal volume of glycerol, aliquot contents and freeze at -20°C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Expiration date is one (1) year from date of opening.

Anti-Apolipoprotein antibodies have been tested in immunohistochemistry and used for indirect trapping ELISA for quantitation of antigen in serum using a standard curve, immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry, and for western blotting for highly sensitive qualitative analysis. When performing immunoblotting assays - do not block with blotto. Blotto formulations tend to contain apoLipoprotein Type C-III and will neutralize antibody activity.
