Specificity: Clone 2D5 recognizes Human hepsin. It binds to a separate epitope than clone 3H10.1. These clones do not interfere with one another.
Endotoxin Level: <1.0 EU/mg as determined by the LAL method.
Purity: ≥95% monomer by analytical SEC and >95% by SDS Page.
Preparation: Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates.
Storage: Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at -80C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.
Hepsin, encoded by the HPN gene, is a type II transmembrane serine protease prominently expressed in tissues such as the liver, kidney, and prostate. Hepsin plays a crucial role in proteolytic processes involved in extracellular matrix remodeling, cell growth, and development. It is known for activating precursor molecules, including hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which is essential for liver development and regeneration. Furthermore, hepsin's involvement extends to influencing cell signaling pathways related to tissue homeostasis and repair. In the context of cancer, particularly prostate cancer, hepsin is implicated in tumor progression and metastasis by promoting extracellular matrix degradation, thereby facilitating tumor invasion and spread. Aberrant expression or activity of hepsin is associated with pathophysiological changes in the tumor microenvironment, making it a target for therapeutic interventions aimed at controlling cancer progression. Research continues to explore hepsin's biochemical functions and regulatory mechanisms, providing insights into its potential roles in both normal physiology and disease states.
