Application

Anti-Pseudomonas exotoxin A antibody produced in rabbit has been used:in the in vitro analysis of the stability of fusion toxins in serumto construct an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted toxin to study its toxicity on Swiss mouse embryo NIH-3T3 cells transfected with human EGFRin the determination of the in vivo half-life of immunotoxins in serum

Anti-Pseudomonas Exotoxin A antibody has been used in in vitro serum stability of fusion toxins and binding of targeted toxins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Pseudomonas exotoxin A is secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and has potent cytotoxic effects. Exotoxin A enters the cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis, translocates to the cytoplasm and inhibits protein synthesis by ADP-ribosylating factor 2. Chimeric exotoxin A has applications in gene treatment of various diseases and probable treatment for cancer.
