Product Description

The Pathscan® Multiplex Western Detection Kit offers a unique method to assay the inhibition of multiple proteins on one membrane without stripping and reprobing. This method saves the user valuable time while increasing accuracy and minimizing reagent waste. The system allows the user to simultaneously detect the inhibition of phosphorylation of c-Abl, Stat5 and CrkL proteins in response to STI-571. The kit also includes eIF4E antibody to control protein loading. In addition, each Pathscan® Multiplex Western Detection Kit contains treated and untreated cell lysates and the Phototope®-HRP Western Detection System. The kit includes enough primary and secondary antibodies to perform five Western blot experiments.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Each phospho-antibody in this kit recognizes only the phosphorylated form of its specific target. The eIF4E control antibody detects total levels of eIF4E to determine protein loading. All of the antibodies detect endogenous levels of the target proteins.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with synthetic peptides. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

STI-571 (also known as Imatinib mesylate) is a tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitor that is a relatively specific ATP-binding site antagonist of Bcr-Abl, PDGF receptor and c-Kit TKs (1-3). Results are encouraging in CML clinical trials, and STI-571 has become a paradigm for targeted cancer therapeutics (4-6). Signal transduction through phospho-tyrosine pathways has been studied extensively, and tyrosine phosphorylation has been linked to multiple cell growth and differentiation pathways (7-9). Because the observed leukemic state of CML is dependent on the intact Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase activity, extensive work has been done to identify substrates of Bcr-Abl and thus possible mechanisms leading to a myeloid expansion. Many groups have characterized prominent tyrosine-phosphorylated protein substrates in both CML blasts and Bcr-Abl-expressing cell lines, including SHIP, c-cbl, Dok, SHC and CrkL (10-15). In addition, key signal transduction pathways involving PI3 kinase, Ras, Myc and Stat5 are also activated in a Bcr-Abl kinase-dependent manner (16).
