Advanced Validation
- VALIDATION:
Recombinant Protein Test (Figure 2): Anti-SCF antibodies (5165) detected human SCF recombinant protein at different concentrations.
Regulated expression validation (Figure 7 & 8): SCF expression detected by anti-SCF antibodies (5165) was up-regulated by angiotensin II (Ang II) treatment and was down-regulated by two inhibitors (Figure 7) or CNP treatment (Figure 8).
- ISOFORMS: Human SCF has 3 isoforms, including isoform 1 (273aa, 30.9kD), isoform 2 (245aa, 27.9kD) and isoform 3 (238aa, 26.7kD). Mouse SCF has 2 isoforms, including isoform 1 (273aa, 30.6kD) and isoform 2 (245aa, 27.6kD). Rat SCF also has 2 isoforms, including isoform 1 (273aa, 30.7kD) and isoform 2 (245aa, 27.7kD). 5165 can detect human and possibly detect mouse and rat.

Background
- SCF Antibody: 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.
