Application Notes
Indirect ELISA: To detect hIGF-BP5 (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. In conjunction with compatible secondaryreagents, it allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIGF-BP5. Sandwich ELISA: To detect hIGF-BP5 (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentrationof 0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. In conjunction with Biotinylated Anti-HumanIGF-BP5 (ABIN181653 or ABIN181654) as a detection antibody, it allows the detection ofat least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIGF-BP5. Western blot: To detect hIGF-BP5 this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit forrecombinant hIGF-BP5 is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Background
IGFBP5 is one of a family of proteins that bind to insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). IGFBP5 is a multifunctional protein which acts not only as a traditional binding protein but also functions as a growth factor independent of IGFs to stimulate bone formation. Currently there are seven named IGF-BPs that form high affinity complexes with both IGFI and IGFII. IGFBP5 is the major IGF-binding protein present in bone tissue and helps potentiate the action of IGFI on smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts or osteoblasts. Data shows that IGFBP5 acts as a growth inhibitor and pro-apoptotic agent in breast cancer cells. IGFBP5 overexpressing mice show an increase in neonatal mortality, reduced female fertility, whole-body growth inhibition and retarded muscle development.Synonyms: IBP-5, IBP5, IGF-binding protein 5, IGFBP-5, Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5
