Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) serves as a central regulator in the renin-angiotensin system, where it catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II while simultaneously inactivating bradykinin. This dual enzymatic activity positions ACE at the intersection of cardiovascular physiology, fluid homeostasis, and inflammatory signaling, making it an essential target for researchers investigating hypertension, heart failure, renal function, and increasingly, tumor microenvironment biology.
This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody, clone 2H8, offers the experimental consistency that demanding research protocols require. Because the antibody sequence is defined and production occurs in controlled recombinant systems, you can expect reliable performance across experiments and between lot numbers, eliminating the variability that can complicate longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide derived from human ACE1 and has been validated for human sample detection.
Immunohistochemistry validation demonstrates clear ACE detection in paraffin-embedded human tissues, with particularly relevant staining observed in lung and kidney sections at 1:100 dilution using citrate buffer antigen retrieval. These tissue types reflect ACE's known expression patterns, as pulmonary endothelium and renal proximal tubules represent major sites of ACE activity in vivo. The antibody is also suitable for ELISA applications, with recommended IHC dilutions ranging from 1:50 to 1:200 depending on your specific tissue and detection system.
Whether your work focuses on cardiovascular disease mechanisms, cancer biology, metabolic regulation, or stem cell differentiation, this affinity-purified antibody provides a dependable tool for investigating ACE expression and localization in human samples.
