The biotin-conjugated PDLIM2 antibody is primarily used in:
ELISA: For quantifying PDLIM2 protein levels in lysates or tissue extracts.
IHC: To localize PDLIM2 expression in fixed tissue sections (e.g., lung cancer biopsies).
Western Blotting: When paired with streptavidin-HRP or streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase for signal detection.
Key Research Context:
PDLIM2 is a tumor suppressor that represses STAT3 and RelA, limiting tumor-promoting macrophage activation in lung cancer . Its downregulation correlates with poor prognosis in patients . This antibody facilitates studies on PDLIM2’s role in immune modulation and therapeutic resistance.
Abbexa’s product is optimized for ELISA with a recommended dilution of 1:20–1:200 for IHC .
Cusabio offers conjugation flexibility (HRP, FITC, Biotin) for diverse protocols .
