Description

Product Specs

Introduction
Neuron-specific enolase, also known as NSE, is a glycolytic isoenzyme found in central and peripheral neurons and neuroendocrine cells. Enolase-2 is released into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) following neural tissue injury. Neoplasms originating from neural or neuroendocrine tissue release Enolase-2 into the bloodstream. Enolase-2 serves as a valuable biomarker and has been detected in patients diagnosed with specific tumors, including neuroblastoma, small cell lung cancer, medullary thyroid cancer, carcinoid tumors, pancreatic endocrine tumors, and melanoma. ENO2 is one of three enolase isoenzymes found in mammals. The ENO2 isoenzyme is present in mature neurons and cells of neuronal origin. A transition from alpha enolase to gamma enolase takes place in neural tissue during the developmental stages of rats and primates.
Physical Appearance
Sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
1 mg/ml in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, containing 10% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.
Storage Procedures
For storage up to 1 month, maintain at 4°C. For extended storage periods, store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Stability / Shelf Life
Stable for 12 months at -20°C and 1 month at 4°C.
Applications
This antibody has undergone testing by ELISA and Western blot analysis to ensure its specificity and reactivity. However, as applications may vary, it is recommended to titrate the reagent for each specific experiment to achieve optimal results. The suggested dilution range for Western blot analysis is 1:500 to 1:5000, with an initial starting dilution of 1:1000.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Function

Enolase-2 is one of the three isoforms of enolase, the others being enolase-1 (α-enolase) and enolase-3 (β-enolase). The enzyme exists as a homodimer or heterodimer, with the γγ homodimer being specific to neurons . The enzymatic site spans most of the length of the molecule, and it is highly conserved across species .

Clinical Significance

Elevated levels of Enolase-2 are often observed in various neuroendocrine tumors, including neuroblastoma and small-cell lung cancer . It is also used as a biomarker for neuronal damage and is measured in conditions such as stroke and traumatic brain injury .

Mouse Anti Human Enolase-2 Antibody

The Mouse Anti Human Enolase-2 Antibody is a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets the human Enolase-2 protein. This antibody is produced by immunizing mice with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of human Enolase-2 . It is widely used in research for detecting Enolase-2 in various applications, including Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry .

Applications
  1. Western Blotting: Used to detect endogenous levels of Enolase-2 protein in cell extracts.
  2. Immunohistochemistry: Helps in visualizing the localization of Enolase-2 in tissue sections.
  3. Flow Cytometry: Used for intracellular staining to measure Enolase-2 levels in cells .
Species Reactivity

The Mouse Anti Human Enolase-2 Antibody shows cross-reactivity with human, mouse, and rat Enolase-2 . This makes it a versatile tool for studying Enolase-2 in various model organisms.

Storage and Handling

The antibody is typically supplied in a buffer containing sodium HEPES, NaCl, BSA, and glycerol. It should be stored at -20°C and should not be aliquoted to maintain its stability .
