NCF1 Antibodies are employed in a range of experimental workflows:
Western Blotting (WB): Used to analyze NCF1 phosphorylation in lysates of immune cells (e.g., neutrophils, macrophages) .
Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Localizes NCF1 in tissue sections, aiding studies of inflammation and oxidative stress .
ELISA: Quantifies NCF1 levels in biological fluids or cell lysates .
Immunofluorescence (IF): Visualizes NCF1 in subcellular compartments (e.g., cytoplasmic or membrane-associated) .
Example Workflow:
In a study on IL-27-induced macrophages, ab63554 was used to detect pS304-phosphorylated NCF1 via WB, confirming its role in ROS production .
Lung Inflammation: NCF1 deficiency in mice reduces allergic inflammation and eosinophil infiltration, highlighting its role in Th1/ILC2 balance .
Autoimmune Diseases: Variants of the NCF1 gene are linked to increased susceptibility to Sjögren’s syndrome and lupus erythematosus .
