Background of VEGFA
VEGF, a homodimeric glycoprotein of relative molecular mass 45,000, is the only mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells. It may be a major regulator of tumor angiogenesis in vivo. It is, however, structurally related to platelet-derived growth factor. VEGF shares homology with the PDGF A chain and B chain, including conservation of all 8 cysteines found in PDGFA and PDGFB. VEGF gene contains 8 exons. VEGF induces remodeling and enhances TH2-mediated sensitization and inflammation in the lung. And this gene also can regulate haematopoietic stem cell survival by an internal autocrine loop mechanism. What’s more, it also stimulates neurogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
Antibody Validation

Western blot analysis of VEGF/VEGFA using anti-VEGF/VEGFA antibody (PB9071).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: recombinant human VEGF/VEGFA protein 20ng,
Lane 2: recombinant human VEGF/VEGFA protein 10ng,
Lane 3: human U87 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human K562 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: rat brain tissue lysates,
Lane 6: rat C6 whole cell lysates,
Lane 7: mouse brain tissue lysates,
Lane 8: mouse Neuro-2a whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-VEGF/VEGFA antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PB9071) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody (Catalog # BA1054) at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for VEGF/VEGFA at approximately 18, 27 kDa. The expected band size for VEGF/VEGFA is at 27 kDa.

Asked: 2019-11-13
Answer
The anti-VEGF/VEGFA antibody (PB9071) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Asked: 2018-03-08
Answer
I looked at the website and datasheets of our anti-VEGF/VEGFA antibody and it appears that PB9071 has been validated on human in both IHC and WB. Thus PB9071 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for WB in human even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for WB detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.
