Antigen Species
Human
Specificity
This antiserum is directed against human Cox-2 and is useful in determining its presence in western blotting and ELISA experiments. The antibody does not cross react with Cox-1. Cox-2 is involved in the response of cells to growth factors, tumor promoters, and cytokines that induce its expression. Given its role in synthesizing prostaglandins, Cox-2 is therefore of interest in studying immune response regulation. This antibody can detect Cox-2 in human, mouse and rat. Reactivity of this antibody with Cox-2 from other species is unknown.
