Testing Data of anti-GDF15 antibody

FACS analysis of BOSC23 cells using MBS605694. BOSC23 cells were transiently transfected with an expression vector encoding either MIC-1 (red curve) or an irrelevant protein (control transfectant: black curve). Binding of MBS605694 was detected with a PE-conjugated secondary antibody. A positive signal was obtained only with MIC-1 transfected cells.

Other Notes

Small volumes of anti-GDF15 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

NCBI Summary for GDF15

Bone morphogenetic proteins (e.g., BMP9; MIM 605120) are members of the transforming growth factor-beta (see TGFB1; MIM 190180) superfamily and regulate tissue differentiation and maintenance. They are synthesized as precursor molecules that are processed at a dibasic cleavage site to release C-terminal domains containing a characteristic motif of 7 conserved cysteines in the mature protein.[supplied by OMIM]

Research Articles on GDF15

1. Inhibition of c-Src activity resulted in the complete abolition of MIC-1-induced phosphorylation of the EGFR, ErbB2, and ErbB3, as well as invasiveness and matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression in SK-BR-3 cells.
2. GDF-15 is independently related to adverse events in non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome both in the acute setting and for at least 6 months after clinical stabilization.
3. Baseline MIC-1 concentrations were increased, not decreased, in individuals before type 2 diabetes manifestation, but not independently associated with incident type 2 diabetes in multivariable analyses.
4. a progressive increase in secretory MIC-1 production correlated with the increase in the metastatic potential of PC-3 and LNPCa prostate cancer metastatic variants.
5. The integrated stress response-associated signals modulates intestinal tumor cell growth by NSAID-activated gene 1.
6. Observational study of gene-disease association and gene-environment interaction. (HuGE Navigator)
7. There is no independent link between plasma MIC-1 levels and depleted nutritional status or survival in oesophago-gastric cancer.
8. This study identifies GDF-15 as a strong and independent predictor of coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality across the broad spectrum of patients with stable and unstable CHD.
9. The prognostic information provided by GDF-15 in cardiovascular disease may inform patient management, e.g., by identifying patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome.
10. Data show that MIC-1 is a new diagnostic marker in the differential diagnosis of dyspnea.
