  • IHC image of CSB-RA902876A0HU 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

Trophoblast glycoprotein, commonly known as 5T4 or TPBG, serves as a compelling target for researchers investigating oncofetal biology, tumor progression, and stem cell dynamics. This leucine-rich repeat glycoprotein shows restricted expression in normal adult tissues but becomes markedly upregulated across numerous carcinomas, making it an attractive focus for cancer immunotherapy development and tumor biology studies. Its role as a Wnt-activated inhibitory factor further positions 5T4 at the intersection of developmental signaling and malignant transformation.

This recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated from clone 6E9 in rabbit host, offers the reproducibility and sequence-defined consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Unlike traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies, recombinant production eliminates lot-to-lot variability, ensuring your optimization efforts translate reliably across extended studies and collaborative projects.

Validation testing demonstrates robust performance across multiple applications. In western blot analysis, the antibody detects 5T4 in diverse human cancer cell lines including U-87, A549, MCF-7, PC-3, and U-251, as well as mouse brain tissue, confirming cross-species reactivity. The observed bands at approximately 50 and 80 kDa, compared to the predicted 47 kDa molecular weight, reflect the extensive glycosylation characteristic of this trophoblast glycoprotein. The 50 kDa band represents a partially glycosylated precursor protein that exists in the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi apparatus and has not completed all glycosylation modifications. The 80 kDa band represents a fully glycosylated mature membrane protein, which is the functional active form located on the cell membrane surface. Immunohistochemistry validation in human placenta tissue, where 5T4 is physiologically expressed, confirms suitability for tissue-based studies with recommended dilutions between 1:50 and 1:200.

Whether you are characterizing 5T4 expression in tumor specimens, investigating its function in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, or developing immunotherapeutic strategies, this antibody provides a dependable tool for cancer research, developmental biology, immunology, and stem cell applications.

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
