Scientific Data Images for Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG Antibody

Detection of Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG by Western Blot.

Western Blot shows lysates of human skeletal muscle tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 2 µg/ml of Mouse Anti-Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11731) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG at approximately 32 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.

Detection of gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG in Human Heart.

gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human heart using Mouse Anti-Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11731) at 5 µg/ml for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001) or the HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to the cytoplasm.

Detection of Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of human skeletal muscle tissue, loaded at 0.5 mg/ml. A specific band was detected for gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG at approximately 49 kDa (as indicated) using 20 µg/ml of Mouse Anti-Human gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11731) followed by HRP-conjugated Goat Anti-Mouse Secondary Antibody (Catalog # 042-205). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230kDa separation system.

Background: gamma-Sarcoglycan/SGCG

Sarcoglycan gamma (SGCG) is a transmembrane protein and a key component of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex (DGC), with a molecular weight of approximately 35 kDa. The sarcoglycan complex, which includes SGCG, is critical for maintaining the structural integrity of muscle cell membranes and for linking the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. SGCG is predominantly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle, where it plays a crucial role in stabilizing the muscle membrane during contraction. Mutations in the SGCG gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2C (LGMD2C), a progressive muscular dystrophy characterized by muscle weakness and membrane instability. Loss of SGCG function leads to disruption of the DGC, resulting in increased susceptibility to muscle membrane damage and impaired muscle regeneration. Recent studies suggest that SGCG may also be involved in signaling pathways regulating muscle homeostasis and repair. Its critical role in muscle integrity, disease pathogenesis, and signaling underscores its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of muscular dystrophies.
