CRIPTO Antibody

Western Blot: CRIPTO Antibody [NB100-1598] - Total protein from human HeLa, NTERA-2 and spleen and embryonic mouse V6.5 cells was separated on a 12% gel by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membrane and blocked in 5% non-fat milk in TBST. The membrane was probed with 2.0 ug/ml anti-Cripto in 1% non-fat milk in TBST and detected with an anti-rabbit HRP secondary antibody using chemiluminescence.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: CRIPTO Antibody [NB100-1598] - CRIPTO antibody was tested in HeLa cells with Dylight 488 (green). Nuclei and alpha-tubulin were counterstained with DAPI (blue) and Dylight 550 (red).

Flow Cytometry: CRIPTO Antibody [NB100-1598] - An intracellular stain was performed on Jurkat with CRIPTO Antibody NB100-1598 and a matched isotype control. Cells were fixed with 4% PFA and then permeablized with 0.1% saponin. Cells were incubated in an antibody dilution of 2.5 ug/mL for 30 minutes at room temperature, followed by Rabbit IgG (H+L) Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, Dylight 550 (SA5-10033, Thermo Fisher).

Flow Cytometry: CRIPTO Antibody [NB100-1598] - An intracellular stain was performed on HeLa cells with CRIPTO Antibody NB100-1598PE (blue) and a matched isotype control (orange). Cells were fixed with 4% PFA and then permeabilized with 0.1% saponin. Cells were incubated in an antibody dilution of 5 ug/mL for 30 minutes at room temperature. Both antibodies were conjugated to phycoerythrin

Background

Cripto-1 (teratocarcinoma-derived growth factor-1) is the original member of EGF-cripto-1-FRL-1-cryptic (CFC) family of vertebrate signaling molecules which is essential for embryonic development and it implicates in carcinogenesis also. Cripto1 functions as a co-receptor for NODAL (TGF-beta member) and is essential for mesoderm as well as endoderm formation and anterior-posterior and left-right axis establishment. After executing key functions during embryonic development, it dramatically disappears in adult tissues (except stem cells). Cripto-1 modulate signaling of TGF-beta family members (NODAL, GDF-1/-3, Activin, TGF-beta1 etc), and activate c-src/MAPK/AKT pathway in a Glypican-1/GRP78-dependent manner, and cross-talks with erbB4, Wnt/beta-catenin, NOTCH, Caveolin-1, and Apelin/putative receptor protein related to angiotensin-type I receptor pathways. During embryonic development, Cripto-1 together with Nodal controls cell migration and EMT, whereas, postnatally, it regulates the branching morphogenesis of mammary gland. Moreover, in adult life it gets re -expressed in several type of tumors wherein it promotes cell proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT, and angiogenesis.

FAQs for CRIPTO Antibody (NB100-1598). (Showing 1 - 1 of 1 FAQs).

1. We would like to check toxicity of following products. For the following antibodies, could you inform us the concentration of sodium azide? Synaptojanin 1 Antibody (AC1) (cat# NB300-428), Ly-6C Antibody (HK1.4) [Biotin] (cat# NBP1-28048), and Cripto1 Antibody (cat# NB100-1598). For your MCF-7 Whole Cell Lysate (cat# NB820-59465), could you inform us the concentration of EDTA, Glycerol and NP-40?
   • NB300-428 is supplied in 0.02% Sodium Azide NBP1-28048 contains 0.1% Sodium Azide and NB100-1598 has 0.05% sodium azide. With regards to your second question, unfortunately the formula for the lysis buffer is proprietary thus the component concentration is not suppose to be disclosed due to Novus policy.
