Invitrogen™ SCF Polyclonal Antibody

Goat Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ PA547284

Catalog No. PIPA547284

Description

In Western blots, approximately 60% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse SCF is observed. Reconstitute at 0.2 mg/mL in sterile PBS.

Stem cell factor (SCF) is the ligand of the c-Kit oncogene and is expressed by various structural and inflammatory cells in the airways. Binding of SCF by the c-Kit receptor leads to homodimerization of the receptor and the activation of signalling pathways such as PI-3, PLC-gamma, Jak/STAT, and MAP kinase pathways. SCF expression leads to the induction of mast cell survival and the expression and release of histamine, pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The inhibition of the SCF/c-Kit pathway leads to a decrease in histamine levels, mast cell and eosinophil infiltration, IL-4 production and airway hyperresponsiveness, suggesting this pathway may be a useful therapeutic target in inflammatory diseases such as asthma. At least two isoforms of SCF are known to exist.
