GLP1 (GCG) (N-term) rabbit polyclonal antibody, Purified

Product Images

Western blot analysis of Glucagon antibody (N-term) in Mouse bladder tissue lysates (35ug/lane). GCG (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.

• 

  Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human hepatocarcinoma reacted with Glucagon Antibody (N-term), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.

• 

  Flow Cytometric analysis of HepG2 cells using Glucagon Antibody (N-term) (bottom histogram) compared to a negative control cell (top histogram). FITC-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit secondary antibodies were used for the analysis.

• Background: GCG is actually a preproprotein that is cleaved into four distinct mature peptides. One of these, glucagon, is a pancreatic hormone that counteracts the glucose-lowering action of insulin by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Glucagon is a ligand for a specific G-protein linked receptor whose signalling pathway controls cell proliferation. Two of the other peptides are secreted from gut endocrine cells and promote nutrient absorption through distinct mechanisms. Finally, the fourth peptide is similar to glicentin, an active enteroglucagon.
