Related Product Information for anti-COX-2 antibody
COX-2 or Cyclooxygenase-2 is an enzyme resposible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2. Inhibition of COX has been linked to the relief of inflammation and pain, thus is a target in pharmaceutical research. SensiStain Anti-COX-2 Antibody was developed for the detection of the presence of COX-2 for research needs.

NCBI Description

Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), also known as cyclooxygenase, is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis, and acts both as a dioxygenase and as a peroxidase. There are two isozymes of PTGS: a constitutive PTGS1 and an inducible PTGS2, which differ in their regulation of expression and tissue distribution. This gene encodes the inducible isozyme. It is regulated by specific stimulatory events, suggesting that it is responsible for the prostanoid biosynthesis involved in inflammation and mitogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]

Uniprot Description

COX-2: Mediates the formation of prostaglandins from arachidonate. May have a role as a major mediator of inflammation and/or a role for prostanoid signaling in activity-dependent plasticity. Homodimer. Belongs to the prostaglandin G/H synthase family.

Product Notes

The COX-2 ptgs2 (Catalog #AAA4160456) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SensiStain Anti-COX-2 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's COX-2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), ELISA (EIA). IHC: 1:1000-1:3000 ELISA: 1:1000-1:2000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the COX-2 ptgs2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "COX-2, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
