KDR (Cat #: AA121)
| Rabbit polyclonal antibody to KDR |
Immunohistochemical detection of KDR in blood vessels endothelial cells in formalin fixed human placenta. 8 μm paraffin-embedded tissue sections were incubated with rabbit polyclonal antibody to KDR at 8 μg/mL overnight at 4°C followed by HRP/AEC detection (red) and counterstaining with hematoxylin (blue). |

Function: KDR is the receptor for VEGF or VEGFC. It has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. The VEGF-kinase ligand/receptor signaling system plays a key role in vascular development and regulation of vascular permeability. In case of HIV-1 infection, the interaction with extracellular viral Tat protein seems to enhance angiogenesis in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions. |

Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Western Blotting (WB). |
| Working Dilution for Immunofluorescence (ICC): |
5 – 15 µg/mL |
| Working Dilution for Immunohistochemistry (IHC): |
5 – 10 µg/mL |
| Working Dilution for Western Blottin (WB): |
1 µg/mL |
| IHC Positive control: |
Endothelial cells in vasculature |

| Reconstitution: |
Reconstitute in 0.05 mL of PBS (pH 7.4) to achieve an antibody concentration of 1000 µg/mL. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. |
| Storage / Stability: |
At least 12 months after purchase at 2 - 4°C. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20°C for a higher stability and at 4°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. |
