Description

Definition and Development of HNRNPC Antibodies

HNRNPC antibodies are monoclonal or polyclonal reagents that specifically bind to HNRNPC proteins (C1/C2 isoforms), which regulate RNA splicing, stabilization, and translation. Key development methods include:

  • Hybridoma Technology: Immunization with HNRNPC-derived peptides followed by B-cell fusion with myeloma cells (e.g., Clone 9G1 ).

  • Recombinant Production: Cloning variable regions of antibody heavy/light chains into expression vectors for large-scale purification .

Validation involves rigorous testing across six applications (ELISA, WB, IHC, IF, FC, IP) to confirm specificity for human HNRNPC .

Cancer Biomarker Validation

HNRNPC antibodies have identified overexpression in 15+ cancers, including:

  • Liver Cancer: Positive HNRNPC expression correlates with tumor size, microvascular invasion, and reduced survival (HR = 1.8, p < 0.01) .

  • Prostate Cancer: Elevated HNRNPC links to higher Gleason scores (OR = 2.4) and suppressed immune infiltration (CD8+ T-cell reduction: 35%) .

  • Cervical Cancer: HNRNPC promotes lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001) via FOXM1 splicing .

Functional Studies

  • Proliferation Assays: HNRNPC knockdown reduces HCC cell viability by 60% (CCK-8 assay) .

  • Invasion/Migration: Transwell assays show 70% inhibition in HNRNPC-silenced cervical cancer cells .

  • Immune Microenvironment: IHC reveals HNRNPC negatively correlates with ImmuneScore in 23/25 cancers .

Target Background

Function
HNRNPC antibody binds to pre-mRNA and initiates the formation of 40S hnRNP particles. It interacts with poly-U tracts in the 3'-UTR or 5'-UTR of mRNA, influencing the stability and translation efficiency of the bound mRNA molecules. Single HNRNPC tetramers bind to 230-240 nucleotides, while trimers of HNRNPC tetramers bind to 700 nucleotides. HNRNPC may play a crucial role in the initial stages of spliceosome assembly and pre-mRNA splicing. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has been shown to alter the local structure in mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) through a mechanism known as the 'm(6)A-switch.' This modification facilitates binding of HNRNPC, ultimately regulating mRNA splicing.
