Endotoxin Level
<0.10 EU per 1 μg of the antibody by the LAL method.

Applications

Recommended Concentration
Sample
Western Blot
0.1 µg/mL
Recombinant Human GM-CSF (Catalog # 215-GM)
Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize GM‑CSF-induced proliferation in the TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cell line. Kitamura, T. et al. (1989) J. Cell Physiol. 140:323. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.08-0.16 µg/mL in the presence of 0.5 ng/mL Recombinant Human GM‑CSF.

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.

Cell Proliferation Induced by GM‑CSF and Neutralization by Human GM‑CSF Antibody. Recombinant Human GM-CSF (Catalog # 215-GM) stimulates proliferation in the TF-1 human erythroleukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human GM-CSF (0.5 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human GM-CSF Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-215-NA). The ND50 is typically 0.08-0.16 µg/mL.

Background: GM-CSF

GM-CSF was initially characterized as a factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors. It is also a growth factor for erythroid, megakaryocyte, and eosinophil progenitors. GM-CSF is produced by a number of different cell types (including T cells, B cells, macrophages, mast cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and adipocytes) in response to cytokine or inflammatory stimuli. On mature hematopoietic cells, GM-CSF is a survival factor for and activates the effector functions of granulocytes, monocytes/macrophages, and eosinophils (1, 2). GM-CSF promotes a Th1 biased immune response, angiogenesis, allergic inflammation, and the development of autoimmunity (3‑5). It shows clinical effectiveness in ameliorating chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, and GM-CSF transfected tumor cells are utilized as cancer vaccines (6, 7). The 22 kDa glycosylated GM-CSF, similar to IL-3 and IL-5, is a cytokine with a core of four bundled alpha ‑helices (8‑12). Mature human GM-CSF shares 63%‑70% amino acid sequence identity with canine, feline, porcine, and rat GM-CSF and 54% with mouse GM-CSF. GM-CSF exerts its biological effects through a heterodimeric receptor complex composed of GM-CSF R alpha /CD116 and the signal transducing common beta  chain (CD131) which is also a component of the high-affinity receptors for IL-3 and IL-5 (13, 14). In addition, GM-CSF binds a naturally occurring soluble form of GM-CSF R alpha (15). Human GM-CSF is active on canine and feline cells but not on murine cells (16‑18).

Human GM-CSF Antibody
By Stephanie Zandee on 03/27/2018
Application: IHC Sample Tested: Adult brain Species: Human

Published in https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28169287
Used at 10ug/ml.
Briefly, frozen brain sections were fixed in 4% PFA
(Fisher Scientific), followed by antigen retrieval using heating in acid
citric buffer (Vector, Burlingame, CA, USA). Endogenous avidin-biotin was blocked for 15 min (Vector).
Sections were incubated with 10% horse serum in PBS (Biosera, Boussens, France) and Fc Receptor
Blocking Solution was added (Human TruStain FcX Biolegend,
London, UK). Primary antibodies were added overnight at 4 °C.
GM-CSF was detected with donkey anti-goat-biotin (ab6578,
Abcam), followed by streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase (SA-5100,
Vector) and visualised with the Vector Blue Alkaline Phosphatase
Substrate Kit III (Vector).
