Preparation: Produced from sera of rabbits immunized with highly pure Recombinant Rat SCF. Anti-Rat SCF-specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography employing an immobilized Rat SCF matrix.
Sandwich ELISA: To detect Rat SCF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 µL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5-2.0 µg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with PeproTech Biotinylated Anti-Rat SCF (500-P202Bt) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of Recombinant Rat SCF.
Western Blot: To detect Rat SCF by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 µg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for Recombinant Rat SCF is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.
Stem cell factor (SCF) is the ligand of the c-Kit oncogene and is expressed by various structural and inflammatory cells in the airways. Binding of SCF by the c-Kit receptor leads to homodimerization of the receptor and the activation of signalling pathways such as PI-3, PLC-gamma, Jak/STAT, and MAP kinase pathways. SCF expression leads to the induction of mast cell survival and the expression and release of histamine, pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The inhibition of the SCF/c-Kit pathway leads to a decrease in histamine levels, mast cell and eosinophil infiltration, IL-4 production and airway hyperresponsiveness, suggesting this pathway may be a useful therapeutic target in inflammatory diseases such as asthma. At least two isoforms of SCF are known to exist.
