Estrogen Receptor alpha Antibody (MA5-13304) in ICC/IF
Immunofluorescent analysis of Estrogen Receptor (ER, green) in T47D and Hs 578T breast cancer cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 15 minutes at room temperature, and blocked with 0.3% BSA in PBS for at least 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were stained with an ER alpha monoclonal antibody (Product # MA5-13304... View More

Product Specific Information
MA5-13304 has successfully been used in IHC, IP, and Western blot procedures. Paraffin sections require an antigen retrieval pretreatment with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) prior to staining. Use Samboni's fixative for optimal staining results. Positive control of Breast carcinoma suggested.
Target Information
Estrogen Receptors (ER) are members of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily of nuclear receptors. The estrogen receptor is a ligand-activated transcription factor, that when bound to estrogen hormone, induces a conformational change that allows dimerization and binding to estrogen response elements (ERE) in DNA. When bound to EREs, ER can positively or negatively regulate gene transcription through the recruitment of coactivator or corepressor proteins. There are two different forms of the estrogen receptor, alpha and beta, encoded by separate genes (ESR1 and ESR2, respectively). Due to alternative RNA splicing, at least 4 estrogen receptor-alpha isoforms are known to exist (Isoform 1 (66 kDa), Isoform 2 (53 kDa), Isoform 3 (47 kDa), Isoform 4 (35 kDa)). Estrogen receptors are widely expressed in different tissue types and are essential for sexual development and reproductive function. They also play a role in other tissues such as bone. Estrogen receptors are involved in pathological processes including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and osteoporosis.
