Product Information
Clonality	Monoclonal
Host Species	Rabbit
Product Description	Monoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with full-length recombinant human Alix protein, a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro410 of human CD54/ICAM-1 protein, a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Val178 of human CD9 protein, residues surrounding Thr195 of human GM130 protein, residues near the amino terminus of human EpCAM protein, and residues surrounding Ile368 of human flotillin-1 protein. Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human annexin V protein and residues surrounding Asp69 of human HSP70. Polyclonal antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Target Information
Gene Description	Exosomes are small membrane-bound vesicles that in recent years have emerged as important molecules for inter-cellular communication. Exosomes are produced during both normal and pathophysiological conditions, and cancer cells have been shown to secrete exosomes in greater amounts than normal cells. The exosomal markers contained in this kit are Alix, Annexin V, ICAM-1, CD9, GM130, EpCAM, flotillin, and HSP70.Alix, a cytosolic scaffold protein, regulates many cellular processes including endocytic membrane trafficking, cell adhesion through interactions with ESCRT proteins, endophilins, and CIN85 .Annexin V is a ~30 kDa protein that binds to phospho-lipids in a calcium-dependent manner. All annexins contain a putative PKC binding site, but only annexin V has been identified as an inhibitor of this pathway.Intracellular cell adhesion molecule-1 is a cell surface glycoprotein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily of adhesion molecules. CD54 is expressed at low levels in diverse cell types, and is induced by cytokines and bacterial lipopolysaccharides. Apical localization on endothelial cells is a prerequisite for leukocyte trafficking through the endothelial barrier.The CD9 antigen belongs to the tetraspanin family of cell surface glycoproteins. Tetraspanins interact with a variety of cell surface proteins and intracellular signaling molecules in specialized tetraspanin-enriched microdomains, where they mediate a range of processes including adhesion, motility, membrane organization, and signal transduction. Additional research identified CD9 as an abudant component of exosomes, and may play a role in the fusion of these secreted membrane vesicles with recipient cells.GM130 is required for membrane fusion events that mediate ribbon formation during Golgi assembly. The Golgi apparatus functions in the modification, organization, and transport of proteins and membrane targeted to other parts of the cell, such as the plasma membrane, lysosomes, and endosomes. This regulated transport is important for appropriate protein localization, secretion, and signal transduction.Epithelial cell adhesion and activation molecule is a transmembrane glycoprotein that mediates calcium-independent, hemophilic adhesions on the basolateral surface of most epithelial cells. One of the first tumor-associated antigens discovered, EpCAM has long been a marker of epithelial and tumor tissue. Research studies have shown that EpCAM is highly expressed in cancer cells and can be used as a biomarker for the detectionof tumor-derived exposomes.Flotillins belong to a famiy of lipid raft-associated integral membrane proteins that are ubiquitously expressed and located to lipid rafts on the cell plasma membrane where they support signal transduction and regulate lipid raft motility and localization. In addition to its colocalization with lipid rafts on the plasma membrane, flotillin-1 also has been found at compartments of the endocytic and autophagosomal pathways, such as recycling/ late endosomes, the Golgi complex, as well as the nucleus.HSP70 is a molecular chaperone expressed constituitively under normal conditions to maintain protein homeostatis and is induced upon environmental stress. HSP70 is able to interact with unfolded proteins to prevent irreversible aggregation and catalyze the refolding of their substrates in an ATP and co-chaperone dependent manner. An immune response is elicited upon excretion of heat shock proteins from tumor exosomes.
