Anti-MIIP antibody produced in rabbit

Migration and invasion inhibitory protein (MIIP), also called insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP2), is expressed in fetal tissues and astroglial cells. It has an insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding motif. It is a tumor-suppressor gene and is mapped to human chromosome 1p36.22. It has a C-terminal polyproline domain.

Anti-MIIP antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting and in immunoprecipitation detection of MIIP in colorectal cancer cells.

Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

Migration and invasion inhibitory protein (MIIP), binds to insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and modulates cancer progression. It is under expressed in brain tumor, invasive glioblastoma multiforme. MIIP is a tumor suppressor gene and inhibits rat sarcoma (Ras)-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1- guanosine triphosphate (Rac1-GTP) mediated cell migration in endometrial carcinoma. Single nucleotide polymorphism in MIIP is associated with increased risk of breast cancer. MIIP inhibits non-small cell lung cancer progression by lowering epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression. Haploinsufficiency of MIIP is implicated in the colorectal tumor progression.

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.
