Scientific Data Images for Human PDGF R beta Antibody
PDGF R beta in Human Breast Cancer Tissue.
PDGF R beta was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human breast cancer tissue using 15 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human PDGF R beta Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF385) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Recombinant Human PDGF R beta Fc Chimera (385-PR) inhibits Recombinant Human PDGF-BB (220-BB) induced proliferation in the NR6R-3T3 mouse fibroblast cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Inhibition of Recombinant Human PDGF-BB (4 ng/mL) activity elicited by Recombinant Human PDGF R beta Fc Chimera (2 µg/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human PDGF R beta Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF385). The ND50 is typically 10-40 µg/mL.Detection of PDGF R beta in U87MG cells by Flow Cytometry.
U87MG cells were stained with Goat Anti-Human PDGF R beta Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF385, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0107).

Background: PDGF R beta
PDGF is a major serum mitogen that can exist as a homo or hetero-dimeric protein consisting of disulfide-linked PDGF-A and PDGF-B chains. The PDGF-AA, PDGF‑BB, and PDGF‑AB isoforms have been shown to bind to two distinct cell surface PDGF receptors with different affinities. Where as PDGF R alpha binds all three PDGF isoforms with high affinity, PDGF R beta binds PDGF-BB only with high-affinity. Both PDGF R alpha and PDGF R beta are members of the class III subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) that also includes the receptors for M-CSF, SCF, and Flt-3 ligand. All class III RTKs are characterized by the presence of five immunoglobulin-like domains in their extracellular region and a split kinase domain in their intracellular region. PDGF binding induces receptor homo-and hetero-dimerization and signal transduction. The expression of the alpha and beta receptors is independently regulated in various cell types. Recombinant soluble PDGF R beta binds PDGF with high affinity and is potent PDGF antagonist.
