Application

Research CategoryNeuroscience

Detect Adenosine A2b Receptor using this Anti-Adenosine A2b Receptor Antibody validated for use in ELISA, IC, IH & WB.

Immunohistochemistry: 10-50 µg/mL on frozen and formalin fixed tissue sections. The receptor was localized in epithelial cells of the crypts, and in synctiotrophoplast cells of human placenta and in T84 human colon adenocarcinoma cells.

Western blot: 1-10 µg/mL (Chemiluminescence technique), 40-100 µg membrane proteins/lane of striatal membranes. Higher concentrations of the antibody may be necessary if colorimetric detection or milk-based antibody diluent are used.

Immunocytochemistry: Caufield, 2003. Light 2% PFA fixation 5-10 minutes --long fixations lower staining intensity.

ELISA: 1:10,000-1:50,000 (50-100 ng A2aR peptide (Cat. Number AG292)/well)

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

Affinity purified immunoglobulin. Liquid in PBS with 0.1% BSA.

Specificity

Adenosine A2b receptor. Recognizes a band of approximately 50-52 kDa in several rat, mouse and human tissues (thymus, placenta, colon and small intestine). The antibody also recognizes the 35 kDa band in small intestine. No bands were detected in skeletal muscle or heart.
