Cholesteryl ester transfer protein plays a central role in reverse cholesterol transport, mediating the exchange of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between high-density lipoproteins and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. This lipid shuttle function makes CETP a key modulator of plasma lipoprotein profiles and a significant focus in cardiovascular disease research, particularly in studies examining atherosclerosis risk and HDL metabolism.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 2F1, offers researchers the consistency and reliability that comes with sequence-defined production. Unlike traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies, recombinant technology ensures that each lot performs identically to the last, eliminating the variability that can complicate longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit host origin provides high-affinity binding characteristics, while affinity chromatography purification delivers a clean preparation suitable for demanding applications.
Validation testing confirms strong performance in immunohistochemistry using human tissue samples. Staining of paraffin-embedded human liver tissue at dilutions ranging from 1:50 to 1:200 demonstrates clear detection of CETP, which is consistent with the liver's established role as the primary site of CETP synthesis and secretion. The validated protocol employed citrate buffer antigen retrieval under high pressure conditions, providing a reliable starting point for researchers optimizing their own workflows. Additional compatibility with ELISA extends the antibody's utility across different experimental platforms.
For investigators studying lipid metabolism, HDL function, or cardiovascular disease mechanisms, this antibody provides a dependable tool for examining CETP expression and distribution in human samples, supporting both basic research and translational studies in this therapeutically relevant area.
