  • IHC image of CSB-RA669019A0HU diluted at 1:100 and staining in paraffin-embedded human placenta tissue performed on a Leica BondTM system. After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30min at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4℃ overnight. The primary is detected by a Goat anti-rabbit IgG polymer labeled by HRP and visualized using 0.05% DAB.

Description

TPBG, also known as 5T4 oncofetal antigen, is a leucine-rich repeat glycoprotein that plays a significant role in developmental biology and cancer research. Originally identified on trophoblast cells during placental development, TPBG expression becomes notably upregulated in various carcinomas while remaining largely restricted in healthy adult tissues. This expression pattern, combined with its involvement in Wnt signaling modulation through its function as Wnt-activated inhibitory factor 1, has established TPBG as an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy studies and tumor biology investigations.

This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 1D4, 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 compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit host origin provides high affinity binding characteristics, while the monoclonal nature guarantees specificity for a single epitope on the human TPBG protein.

Validation in immunohistochemistry demonstrates reliable performance in paraffin-embedded human placenta tissue, a physiologically relevant sample type given TPBG's established expression in trophoblast cells. Using heat-mediated antigen retrieval in citrate buffer and dilutions between 1:50 and 1:200, researchers can expect clear visualization of TPBG-positive cells with standard polymer detection systems. The antibody is also validated for ELISA applications, providing flexibility across different experimental workflows.

This antibody serves researchers investigating cancer biology, stem cell characteristics, immunological targeting strategies, and developmental processes where understanding TPBG expression and function is essential to advancing their work.

Target Background

Function
May function as an inhibitor of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling by indirectly interacting with LRP6 and blocking Wnt3a-dependent LRP6 internalization.
Gene References into Functions
  1. In extravillous trophoblasts, 5T4 may function in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition during placentation. The role of syncytiotrophoblast 5T4 is unknown, but its abundance in shed syncytial vesicles may signify route of sensitization of the maternal immune system. PMID: 28481180
  2. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that an anti-5T4 antibody-drug conjugate reduces the fraction of cancer stem cells (CSC), and prevents local recurrence and suggest a novel therapeutic approach for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. PMID: 27780858
  3. We obtained GWS evidence (P < 2.7 x 10(-6)) for gene-based association in the total sample with a novel locus, TPBG (P = 1.8 x 10(-6)). PMID: 28183528
  4. In conclusion, the present study provided evidence that TPBG is involved in PDAC metastasis, and that TPBG and its associated signaling pathways may be a suitable target for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma therapy. PMID: 25738465
  5. 5T4 expression is mechanistically associated with the directional movement of cells through epithelial mesenchymal transition, facilitation of CXCL12/CXCR4 chemotaxis, blocking of canonical Wnt/beta-catenin while favouring non-canonical pathway signalling PMID: 25066861
  6. Tyrosine 325 plus the leucine-rich repeat 1 surface centered on a second exposed aromatic residue, phenylalanine 97, are essential for inhibition of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. PMID: 24582434
  7. The surface expression of 5T4 marks the use of the CXCR4 rather than the CXCR7 receptor, with distinct consequences for CXCL12 exposure. PMID: 22956548
  8. 5T4 is a potential new antigen for targeted therapies such as immunotherapy in MPM, as it is overexpressed on mesothelioma cells and recognised by 5T4-specific cytotoxic T-cells. PMID: 22498111
  9. Glycosylation and epitope mapping of the 5T4 glycoprotein oncofoetal antigen PMID: 11903056
  10. Results sugest that 5T4 is a transient marker of human embryonic stem cell differentiation & that 5T4 phenotype, colony seeding density and culture conditions influence the maintenance of pluripotent hES cells and their differentiation to neural lineages. PMID: 16616918
  11. there is a repertoire of CD8 T cell recognition of 5T4 in normal human donors and some candidate HLA-A*0201 epitopes have been identified PMID: 16646078
  12. the mRNA expression of trophoblast glycoprotein is up-regulated in cells circulating within blood from women with preeclampsia. PMID: 17978129
  13. 5T4-based cancer vaccine: cytotoxic T lymphocyte epitopes identified in Trovax-vaccinated colorectal cancer patients PMID: 18567615
  14. colorectal cancer patients who had preexisting cell proliferative responses to 5T4 were longer-term survivors PMID: 18833005
