Anti-Frizzled-7 antibody produced in rabbit

MFCD06798447

NA.41

Frizzled homolog protein (FZD) is a seven-pass transmembrane type receptor expressed in various normal tissues such as skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, cerebellum and cerebral cortex. In human, ten members (FZD1-FZD10) of Frizzled homolog protein have been identified. FZD7 is expressed throughout normal gastrointestinal tract, from esophagus to rectum. It is highly expressed in the gastric cancer cell line MKN7 and relatively lowers in esophageal cancer cell lines.

synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminal extracellular domain of human frizzled-7, conjugated to KLH. The immunizing peptide has 100% homology with the mouse gene.

Anti-Frizzled-7 antibody is suitable for immunostaining of liver tissues to localise FZD7 in T and pT tissues. It is also suitable for immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections) at a concentration of 4μg/mL using human kidney.

FZD7 shows 98.8% nucleotide identity with FzE3 and encodes for WNT receptors with nine amino-acid substitutions. In human primary gastric cancer, high level of FZD7 has been found. Mechanistically, over-expression of Frizzled-7 accelerates the WNT-β-catenin-TCF pathway. Through the activation of the WNT-β-catenin-TCF pathway, FZD7, might play key roles in carcinogenesis.
