Immunofluorescence (IF) (Immunofluorescence staining of Human OLFM4 in A431 cells. Cells were fixed with 4% PFA, permeabilzed with 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS, blocked with 10% serum, and incubated with Mouse anti-Human OLFM4 monoclonal antibody (1:60) at 37 degree C 1 hour. Then cells were stained with the Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated Goat Anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody (green) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Positive staining was localized to cytoplasm.)

Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS)

(Flow cytometric analysis of Human OLFM4 expression in DU145 cells. The cells were treated according to manufacturer's manual (BD Pharmingen'), and stained with Purified Mouse anti-OLFM4 (11639-MM12), then a FITC-conjugated second step antibody. The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells.)

Related Product Information for anti-OLFM4 antibody
Olfactomedin-4, also known as G-CSF-stimulated clone 1 protein, Antiapoptotic protein GW112, and OLFM4, is a secreted protein that contains one olfactomedin-like domain. The OLFM4 gene was recently reported to inhibit various apoptotic pathways and promote the proliferation of cancer cells, suggesting that OLFM4 might serve as a marker for human cancers. Thus, OLFM4 mRNA might be a useful tool to support the identification of cancer, irrespective of the clinical stages. It is overexpressed in some human tumor types, especially in those of the digestive system. GW112 is associated with GRIM-19, a protein known to be involved in regulating cellular apoptosis. Functionally, GW112 could significantly attenuate the ability of GRIM19 to mediate retinoic acid-IFN-beta-mediated cellular apoptosis and apoptosis-related gene expression. Also, GW112 demonstrated strong antiapoptotic effects in tumor cells treated with other stress exposures such as hydrogen peroxide. Finally, forced overexpression of GW112 in murine prostate tumor cells led to more rapid tumor formation in a syngeneic host. OLFM4 is an important regulator of cell death that plays important roles in tumor cell survival and tumor growth. As a candidate gene for cancer-specific expression. The serum olfactomedin 4 (OLFM4) is a useful marker for Gastric cancer (GC) and its measurement alone or in combination with Reg IV has utility in the early detection of GC. GW112 has an antiapoptotic property against the cytotoxic agents-induced apoptosis. It suggested that GW112 could be an important mediator in NF kappaB-dependent tumorigenesis of digestive tract tissues.

NCBI Description

This gene was originally cloned from human myeloblasts and found to be selectively expressed in inflammed colonic epithelium. This gene encodes a member of the olfactomedin family. The encoded protein is an antiapoptotic factor that promotes tumor growth and is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that facilitates cell adhesion. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Uniprot Description

OLFM4: May promote proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by favoring the transition from the S to G2/M phase. In myeloid leukemic cell lines, inhibits cell growth and induces cell differentiation and apoptosis. May play a role in the inhibition of EIF4EBP1 phosphorylation/deactivation. Facilitates cell adhesion, most probably through interaction with cell surface lectins and cadherin.

Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; Secreted

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 13q14.3

Cellular Component: extracellular space; azurophil granule; specific granule; mitochondrion; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; plasma membrane; secretory granule

Molecular Function: protein homodimerization activity; cadherin binding; catalytic activity

Biological Process: regulation of apoptosis; metabolic process; negative regulation of immune response; negative regulation of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB cascade; cell adhesion; regulation of phagocytosis; protein homooligomerization

The OLFM4 olfm4 (Catalog #AAA8105553) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-OLFM4 Antibody, Mouse Monoclonal reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's OLFM4 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS/FCM), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunofluorescence (IF). ELISA: 1:1000-1:2000 ICC/IF: 1:20-1:100 FC/FACS/FCM: 1:25-1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the OLFM4 olfm4 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 "OLFM4, 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.
