Antibody type
Monoclonal antibodies
Protein name
Prolactin (PRL)
Immunogen
Synthesized peptide derived from human Prolactin
Specificity
This antibody detects endogenous levels of human Prolactin. Heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) TRIS-EDTA of pH8.0 was highly recommended as antigen repair method in paraffin section
Constitute
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Source
Mouse, Monoclonal/IgG1, Kappa
Dilution rate
IHC-p 1:100-500. IF 1:50-200
Purification process
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen.
Background
This gene encodes the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin. This secreted hormone is a growth regulator for many tissues, including cells of the immune system. It may also play a role in cell survival by suppressing apoptosis, and it is essential for lactation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.

Function
function:Prolactin acts primarily on the mammary gland by promoting lactation.,online information:Prolactin entry,similarity:Belongs to the somatotropin/prolactin family.,
