Background of PLA2G7/PAF-AH/Lp-PLA2
Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), also known as platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH), is a phospholipase A2 enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLA2G7 gene. Lp-PLA2 is a 45-kDa protein of 441 amino acids. It is one of several PAF acetylhydrolases. In the blood it travels mainly with low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Less than 20% is associated with high-density lipoprotein HDL. It is an enzyme produced by inflammatory cells and hydrolyzes oxidized phospholipids in LDL. Lp-PLA2 is platelet-activating factor (PAF) acetylhydrolase, a secreted enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of PAF to inactive products by hydrolysis of the acetyl group at the sn-2 position, producing the biologically inactive products LYSO-PAF and acetate.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of PAFAH using anti-PAFAH antibody (A02164-2).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Caco-2 whole cell lysate,
Lane 2: human SW620 whole cell lysate.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-PAFAH antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A02164-2) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for PAFAH at approximately 50KD. The expected band size for PAFAH is at 50KD.

Question
Would anti-PAFAH/PLA2G7 antibody A02164-2 work on feline WB with lymphoma?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-09-13
Answer
Our lab technicians have not validated anti-PAFAH/PLA2G7 antibody A02164-2 on feline. You can run a BLAST between feline and the immunogen sequence of anti-PAFAH/PLA2G7 antibody A02164-2 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated feline samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in feline lymphoma in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question
We are currently using anti-PAFAH/PLA2G7 antibody A02164-2 for human tissue, and we are well pleased with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human. Is it likely that the antibody can work on horse tissues as well?

Asked: 2016-02-23
Answer
The anti-PAFAH/PLA2G7 antibody (A02164-2) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with horse tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in horse you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
