Description

Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a member of the EGF family of growth factors. Human HB-EGF was initially identified as a protein of 22 kD secreted by macrophage-like U937 cells. It belongs to the EGF family of proteins that includes EGF, TGF-α, HB-EGF, epigen, epiregulin, betacellulin, neuroregulin, and tomoregulin. All the EGF family members are synthesized as type I membrane protein precursors, which can undergo proteolytic cleavage at the plasma membrane to release a mature soluble ectodomain. It has been suggested that various metalloproteinases participate in the shedding of HB-EGF, such as MMP-3, MMP-7, ADAM9, ADAM10, ADAM12, and ADAM17. The ectodomain shedding is stimulated by phorbol esters, calcium ionophore, lysophosphatidic acid, and IL-1β. In addition, nardilysin, a metalloendopeptidase of the M16 family, binds HB-EGF and enhances its shedding through activation of TACE (ADAM17). The membrane-anchored HB-EGF acts in cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. In addition, the membrane HB-EGF is the receptor for diphtheria toxin that can be internalized and induce apoptotic death. HB-EGF plays a crucial role in cardiac valvulogenesis. Newborn knockout mice have malformed semilunar and atrioventricular heart valves and poorly differentiated lungs. HB-EGF is overexpressed in several types of cancer such as pancreatic carcinoma, ovarian cancer, and gastric carcinoma. HB-EGF is also involved in cancer metastasis and invasion of ovarian cancer, head and neck cancer, and thyroid carcinoma cells.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µL per million cells in 100 µL staining volume or 5 µL per 100 µL of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Distribution

Monocytes, macrophages, T cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, myeloid leukemia blasts, myeloma cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and normal or neoplastic epithelial cells

Function
HB-EGF is associated with proliferation and differentiation of stromal cells, apoptosis, and morphogenesis. It participates in inflammation, wound healing, atherosclerotic plaque progression, and cardiac valvulogenesis. TNF-α and IL-1β induces HB-EGF in endothelial cells.
