Scientific Data Images for TGF‑ beta 2 Antibody

TGF-beta 2 antibody in Human Prostate Cancer by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

TGF‑ beta 2 in Human Prostate Cancer.

TGF-beta 2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human prostate cancer tissue using Mouse Anti-TGF-beta 2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB612) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Mouse HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS002) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in cancer cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Effects of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta 2 silencing on metastatic phenotypes of sonic-hedgehog medulloblastoma cells with high LOXL1-AS1 expression. A RT-qPCR analysis of TGF-beta 2 expression in Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and Daoy-MYCN cells. B RT-qPCR analysis of four stemness markers in Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and Daoy-MYCN cells relative to the parental group. C Western blot analysis of four stemness markers in Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and Daoy-MYCN cells. Quantification values below each band are relative to the parental group. D, G Sphere-formation assay of (D) Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and (G) Daoy-MYCN cells, including microscopic images (left images), and the number and sizes of spheres of ≥150 μm in diameter (right bar chart). Scale bars, 500 μm in 4× and 100 μm in 20× magnification. E, H Wound-healing assay of (E) Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and (H) Daoy-MYCN cells. F, I Transwell migration and invasion assays of (F) Daoy-LOXL1-AS1 and (I) Daoy-MYCN cells including quantification of cell migration (left bar chart) and invasion (right bar chart). Quantitative data are presented as mean ± SD of replicates from representative of three independent experiments.

Background: TGF-beta 2

The active form of TGF-beta 2 is a disulfide-linked homodimer which is generated by activation of the latent TGF-beta 2 complex. TGF-beta s are multifunctional cytokines that activate or repress multiple genes in a wide variety of cell types. Depending on the cell context, TGF-beta can control many cellular processes including growth, morphogenesis, and apoptosis.
