General description

The product binds human IgG and not other human Ig. Immunoglobulins are composed of antigen-binding domains of two fragments (Fab) and one crystallizable fragment (Fc). The gene encoding the IgG gene cluster is found on human chromosome 14. Anti-human IgG antiserum (Fc specific) is produced in goat using purified human IgG, Fc fragment, as an immunogen. Affinity isolated antibody is obtained from goat anti-human IgG antiserum by immunospecific purification that removes essentially all goat serum proteins, including immunoglobulins, that do not specifically bind to the Fc fragment of human IgG.

Specificity

Specificity for the human IgG Fc fragment is determined by ELISA and immunoelectrophoresis (IEP). The antibody preparation is specific for human IgG, Fc fragment when tested against purified human IgA, IgG (Fc and Fab fragments), IgM, Bence Jones kappa, and Bence Jones lambda myeloma proteins. No reactivity is observed with the Fab fragment of human IgG, light chains, IgA or IgM. The affinity-purified anti-human IgG (Fc-specific) reagent offers the advantage of increased sensitivity for human IgG without cross-reactivity with other substances present on the cell membrane or surface.

The lack of cross-species cross-reactivity with mouse or rat serum proteins makes this product excellent for screening human monoclonal antibodies produced by hybridoma cells grown in vivo in mouse or rat ascites fluids. This product has the ability to detect all subclasses of human IgG in human biological fluids or tissues from normal or pathological situations such as cancer or autoimmune diseases. It is effective as a second antibody reagent in immunoassay procedures and can be used as a starting material for conjugates using enzymes or fluorescent dyes.

Biochemical / Physiological Actions

The IgG antibody subtype is the most abundant of the serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids and provides protection against infections caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to the fetus through the placenta, which is vital for the newborn’s immune defense against infection. Mutations in the Fc region of IgG are implicated in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Modified Fc proteins are of therapeutic importance for the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Immunogen: Recombinant fragment containing amino acids 511-580 of human Glypican 3 (1G12); Full-length recombinant human GPC3 protein (GPC3 / 863)

Location: Cytoplasmic

Marker: Hepatocellular carcinoma marker

Specificity

Glypican-3 (GPC3) is an integral membrane protein that is mutated in Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (GBSS). SGBS is characterized by pre-and postnatal overgrowth and is an X-linked recessive condition. GPC3 can also be found in secreted form. Anti-GPC3 has been identified as a useful tumor marker for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), hepatoblastoma, melanoma, testicular germ cell tumors, and Wilms tumor.

In HCC patients, GPC3 is overexpressed in neoplastic liver tissue and elevated in serum, but is undetectable in normal liver, benign liver, and serum from healthy donors. GPC3 expression is also found to be higher in HCC liver tissue than in cirrhotic liver or liver with focal lesions such as dysplastic nodules and areas of liver adenoma (HA) with malignant transformation. In the context of testicular germ cell tumors, GPC3 expression is up-regulated in certain histological subtypes, specifically yolk sac tumors and choriocarcinoma.

A high level of GPC3 expression has also been found in some types of embryonal tumors, such as Wilm’s tumor and hepatoblastoma, with low or undetectable expression in adjacent normal tissue. In thyroid cancer patients, GPC3 expression is dramatically improved in certain types of cancers: 100% in follicular carcinoma and 70% in papillary carcinoma. The expression of GPC3 in follicular carcinoma was significantly higher than that of follicular adenoma. In contrast, GPC 3 is not expressed in anaplastic carcinoma.

Anti-glycan antibodies are an abundant subpopulation of serum antibodies with critical functions in many immune processes. Changes in the levels of these antibodies can occur with the onset of disease, exposure to pathogens, or vaccination. As a result, there has been significant interest in exploiting anti-glycan antibodies as biomarkers for many diseases. The serum contains a mixture of anti-glycan antibodies that can recognize the same antigen, and competition for binding can potentially influence the detection of antibody subpopulations that are more relevant to disease processes.

The most abundant antibody isotypes in serum are IgG, IgM, and IgA, but little is known about how these different isotypes compete for the same glucan antigen. In this study, we developed a multiplexed glucan microarray assay and applied it to assess how different isotypes of anti-glucan antibodies (IgA, IgG, and IgM) compete for the imprinted glycan antigens. While IgG and IgA antibodies generally outperform IgM for peptide or protein antigens, we found that IgM outperformed IgG and IgA on many glucan antigens.

To illustrate the importance of this effect, we provide evidence that IgM competition may explain the unexpected observation that IgG of certain antigenic specificities appears to be preferentially transported from mothers to fetuses. We show that IgM in maternal serum competes with IgG resulting in lower than expected IgG signals. Since cord blood contains very low levels of IgM, competition only affects maternal IgG signals, making it appear that certain IgG antibodies are higher in cord blood than matched maternal blood. Taken together, the results highlight the importance of competition for studies involving anti-glycan antibodies.

Introduction

Human serum contains a wide variety of carbohydrate-binding antibodies that play a critical role in human health and provide a rich pool of potential biomarkers for many biomedical applications and diseases. For example, the detection of anti-glycan antibodies against blood group A and B antigens provides a simple and reliable strategy to predict which individuals are suitable for transfusion and transplantation. Anti-glycan antibodies are also crucial in other areas of immunology, such as tumor surveillance, autoimmunity, defense against pathogens, and response to vaccines.

These broader immune functions have stimulated interest in exploring the potential use of circulating anti-glycan antibodies as biomarkers for a wide variety of diseases. Detection of antiglycan antibodies in serum is typically carried out by immobilizing a carbohydrate of interest, capturing specific antibodies, and then measuring the amounts of bound antibodies.

This process is complicated by the fact that serum often contains a mixture of antibodies that recognize the same antigen, and certain antibodies within the mixture may be more relevant to immune protection or disease processes than others. Antibodies against a particular glycan can vary in terms of affinity, specificity, concentration, and/or isotype, but they can all compete to bind to the same antigen. As a result, the binding of one can influence the detection of the others, and it can be difficult to reliably measure a subpopulation of target antibodies of interest.

Results

Our approach to assessing competence involved the use of purified IgG, IgA, and IgM antibodies from pooled human serum. Each polyclonal antibody sample would be profiled on our glycan microarray individually and in the presence of other isotypes. In addition, changes in IgG and IgM anti-glycan antibody signals would be assessed in whole serum after the addition of IgG, IgA, and IgM. Although IgD and IgE are also present in serum at low concentrations and capable of competing, this study focused on the most abundant antibodies in serum.

CD34 is a glycosylated transmembrane protein and represents a well-known marker for primitive progenitor cells derived from blood and bone marrow, especially for hematopoietic and endothelial stem cells. Although the biological functions of CD34 are largely unknown, recent data suggest that CD34 is involved in maintaining progenitor cells in a phenotypically undifferentiated state.

PromoCell offers CD34 + progenitor cells from healthy donor umbilical cord blood. CD34 + progenitor cells contain two main cell subpopulations, hematopoietic and endothelial progenitor cells. Thus, CD34 + progenitor cells are suitable for a number of studies, e.g. Eg directed differentiation into more compromised blood cell types and endothelial lineages.

Quality

Rigid quality control tests are performed for each lot of CD34 + progenitor cells. They are routinely characterized by flow cytometry that analyzes viability, cell size, and the presence of significant markers, ie, CD34. Additionally, all cells have been tested for the absence of HIV-1, HIV-2, HBV, HCV, HTLV-1, HTLV-2, and microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, and mycoplasmas).

Warning

Although tests for HIV-1, HIV-2, HBV, HCV, HTLV-1, and HTLV-2 were negative, cells, like all products of human origin, should be handled as potentially infectious. No test procedure can completely guarantee the absence of infectious agents.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme family of dipeptidyl carboxypeptidases and has considerable homology to the human angiotensin 1 converting enzyme. This secreted protein catalyzes the cleavage of angiotensin I into angiotensin 1-9, and angiotensin II into the vasodilator angiotensin 1-7.

The organ- and cell-specific expression of this gene suggests that it may play a role in the regulation of cardiovascular and renal function, as well as fertility. In addition, the encoded protein is a functional receptor for the spike glycoprotein of the human coronavirus HCoV-NL63 and the human severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19 virus)

Nucleoprotein the positive strand of viral genome RNA into a helical ribbons leocapsid (RNP) and plays a fundamental role during virion assembly through its interactions with the viral genome and membrane protein M. It plays an important role in enhancing the efficiency of subgenomic viral RNA transcription as well as viral replication. Coronavirus nucleoproteins are phosphoproteins and are encoded near the 3′ end of the genome.

N possesses two RNA-binding domains: an N-terminal domain with adjacent S/R-rich motif and the C-terminal 209 amino acids. N protein is involved in coronavirus infection in many ways: the C-terminal domain (CTD) of N is important for binding the genomic RNA packaging signal leading to selective genome incorporation, the N3 domain interacts with the endodomain of M to form virions, and the serine–arginine repeat region of N (SR) interacts with the first ubiquitin-like domain of nsp3 in a critical early replication step.

Moreover, it has also been demonstrated that N can oligomerize through interactions in the CTD, bind viral RNA through the N-terminal domain, unwind double-stranded nucleic acid in the manner of an RNA chaperone, and pack in a helix through the N-terminal domain, though none of these other functions has yet been demonstrated to be important for infection.
