Scientific Data
Detection of Mouse PLUNC by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of mouse lung tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Mouse PLUNC Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4274) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for PLUNC at approximately 30kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.
PLUNC in Mouse Embryo. PLUNC was detected in immersion fixed frozen sections of mouse embryo nose (13 d.p.c.) using Sheep Anti-Mouse PLUNC Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4274) at 1.7 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to olfactory epithelium. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.
Detection of Mouse PLUNC by Western Blot A1AT treatment enhances SPLUNC1 and reduces NE activity in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of PA-infected WT mice. PA-infected mice were treated with A1AT for 22 hrs and sacrificed after 24 hrs of infection as described in Materials and Methods. Quantitative analysis (A) and representative image (B) of BAL fluid SPLUNC1 Western blot were shown to demonstrate the therapeutic effect of A1AT treatment. The two lanes of Western blot image under saline or PA treatment represent SPLUNC1 data from two different mice. NE activity (C) was examined by an NE activity assay. N = 4 – 7 mice per group. The vertical dotted red line in Figure 2B separates the saline group from the PA infection group. NS indicates no significant differences. Data are expressed as means ± SEM.

Detection of Mouse PLUNC by Western Blot Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection reduces SPLUNC1 and increases neutrophil elastase (NE) activity in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of wild-type (WT) mice. BAL fluid from WT mice was processed for SPLUNC1 protein Western blot. (A) – Quantitative analysis of BAL fluid SPLUNC1 protein expression normalized by albumin. (B) – Representative Western blot image of SPLUNC1 and albumin. The vertical dotted red line separates the saline group from the PA infection group. The two lanes under saline or PA treatment represent SPLUNC1 data from two different mice. (C) – NE activity was examined by an NE activity assay as described in Materials and methods. N = 4 – 5 mice per group. Data are expressed as means ± SEM.

Background: PLUNC
PLUNC (Palate, lung, and nasal epithelium clone; also SPLUNC1) is a 25-30 kDa member of the PLUNC family, BPI/PLUNC/LBP superfamily of proteins. PLUNC is a secreted glycoprotein that is expressed by both adult and embryonic respiratory epithelium in the nose, trachea and bronchi/primary bronchioles. It serves as a natural antibacterial polypeptide in the respiratory system. Mature mouse PLUNC is 259 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains four, six-amino acid repeats (GxxLPL) over aa 23-52. There is reportedly one splice variant that shows a 28 aa substitution for the C-terminal 45 amino acids (aa 234-278). Over aa 59-278, mouse PLUNC shares 91% and 75% aa identity with rat and human PLUNC, respectively.
