PA1-075 detects receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) from mouse and rat samples.
PA1-075 has been successfully used in Western blot and immunohistochemistry procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects two bands in the 45 kDa range representing the RAGE protein pre and post-glycosylation in mouse lung extract. This antibody also detects an ~25 kDa protein that is believed to be proteolytic degradation product. Immunohistochemical staining of RAGE in transgenic mouse retina results in staining of the retinal pigmented epithelium and photo receptor cell layers.
The PA1-075 immunogen is a synthetic peptides corresponding to residues C(362) W R K R Q P R (R/L) E E R K A P E S Q E D(380) of rat RAGE. This sequence is 100% conserved in mouse and 70% conserved in humans. This peptide (Cat. # PEP-194) is available for use in neutralization and control experiments.
The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products (RAGE) is a gene located on human chromosome 6p21.3, encoding a transmembrane receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. RAGE is expressed in various tissues, with significant levels in the lungs, and plays a crucial role in cellular signaling and inflammation. As a receptor, RAGE binds multiple ligands, including advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), amyloid-β peptide, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), and S100/calgranulin proteins, facilitating diverse pathological processes like inflammation, cancer progression, and neurodegeneration. The interaction between RAGE and its ligands triggers intracellular signaling pathways such as NF-?B activation, leading to inflammatory responses and oxidative stress. In the context of chronic diseases like diabetes, Alzheimer's, and cardiovascular diseases, RAGE is a critical mediator, linking metabolic disturbance to cellular dysfunction. Therapeutic targeting of RAGE signaling is under investigation, aiming to mitigate its contribution to inflammatory and degenerative diseases.
