Blockade of Receptor-ligand Interaction
In a functional ELISA, 2-8 µg/mL of this antibody will block 50% of the binding of 250 ng/mL of Recombinant Human FGF-19 (Catalog # 969-FG) to immobilized Recombinant Human FGF R4 Fc Chimera (Catalog # 685-FR) coated at 2 µg/mL (100 µL/well). At 10 μg/mL, this antibody will block >90% of the binding.
 

Please Note: Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application. General Protocols are available in the Technical Information section on our website.

Scientific Data

Western Blot Detection of Human FGF-19 antibody by Western Blot. View Larger

Detection of Human FGF‑19 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of COLO 205 human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line, conditioned media from COLO 205 cell line, and HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human FGF-19 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF969) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for FGF-19 at approximately 22 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Background: FGF-19

Fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF-19) belongs to the large FGF family which has at least 23 members (1, 2). All FGF family members are heparin-binding growth factors with a core 120 amino acid (aa) FGF domain that allows for a common tertiary structure. FGFs are expressed during embryonic development and in restricted adult tissues. They act on cells of mesodermal and neuroectodermal origin to regulate diverse physiologic functions including angiogenesis, cell growth, pattern formation, embryonic development, metabolic regulation, cell migration, neurotrophic effects and tissue repair (3, 4). Signaling receptors for FGFs are type I transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases belonging to the Ig superfamily. Four distinct but related classes of FGF receptors, FGF R1, 2, 3, and 4, exist. Through alternative splicing, multiple isoforms for FGF R1, 2 and 3, with distinct ligand recognition profiles, are also generated (4).

Human FGF-19 cDNA predicts a 251 aa precursor protein with a 22 aa signal peptide and a 229 aa secreted mature protein with no potential N-linked glycosylation sites (1, 2). Among FGF family members, human FGF-19 is most closely related to chicken FGF-19 and murine FGF-15, sharing approximately 61% and 51% aa sequence identity, respectively (1, 2, 5). Neither the human orthologue of mouse FGF-15, nor the mouse counterpart of human FGF-19 has been identified. With the exception of adult gall bladder epithelium, FGF-19 expression is restricted to fetal tissues (1, 2). Unlike most FGFs which bind to and activate more than one FGF receptor, FGF-19 is a specific ligand for FGF R4 (2). Similarly, another FGF family member, FGF-7 (KGF), only activates KGF R, the IIIb isoform of FGF R2 (4). During chick embryogenesis, FGF-19 has been shown to act synergistically with Wnt-8c to initiate inner ear development (5).
