Product Summary

The Quantikine Mouse EGF Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure mouse EGF in cell culture supernates, tissue homogenates, serum, plasma, and urine. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant mouse EGF and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural mouse EGF showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring mouse EGF.

Recovery

The recovery of mouse EGF spiked to three levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Supernates (n=4) 109 101-119
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 97 87-106
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 95 87-105
Serum (n=4) 96 83-107
Tissue Homogenates (n=3) 93 89-101

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples spiked with or containing mouse EGF in each matrix were diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Detection of Mouse EGF by ELISA STAT3 alters tumour microenvironment and angiogenesis.(a) IHC analysis of von Willebrand Factor (vWF) and CD31 is shown in consecutive sections of murine lung tumours of the indicated genotype. On right, CD31+ counts per tumour area (mm2) quantification at indicated time points. Data were analysed by Student’s t-test and displayed as mean±s.e.m. n≥5 tumours per mouse with n≥4 mice per genotype and time point. Scale bar, 50 μm. (b) ELISA of VEGFA levels in lung tumour lysates at indicated time points. Data were analysed by Student’s t-test and displayed as mean±s.d., n≥6 mice per genotype and time point. (c) Expression levels of Pdgfa in total lungs were measured by quantitative real-time PCR at indicated time points. Values are presented as fold change of relative mRNA expression compared with Stat3 delta Lep/ delta Lep:Kras+/+ mice. Data were analysed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey’s multiple comparison test and are shown as mean± s.d., n≥5 animals/genotype. (d) Flow cytometric analysis of Cd11b+Gr1+ granulocytes and Cd11b+ F4/80+ macrophages in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) at 6 and 13 weeks post AdCre. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison test and are shown as mean±s.e.m. (e) Flow cytometric analysis of myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) subsets at 6 and 13 weeks post AdCre. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison test and are shown as mean± s.e.m. (f) Ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T-cell counts in BAL are shown. Data were analysed by Kruskal–Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparison testing and are shown as mean±s.e.m. Data displayed in d–f are n≥6 mice per genotype and time point, 13-week group represents two independent experiments. (g) Flow cytometric analysis of Cd11b+Gr1+ and Cd11b+ F4/80+ cells of A549 shControl versus A549-shSTAT3 xenograft tumours. Data were analysed by Student’s t-test and are displayed as mean±s.e.m. (n≥8 tumours; ≥4 mice per group). (h) IHC analysis and representative pictures of CD31+ counts per xenograft tumour area (mm2). Scale bar, 100 μm (n=8 tumours/≥4 mice). Data were analysed by Student’s t-test and are shown as mean±s.e.m. For all graphs: *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001.

Background: EGF

EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) is expressed as a transmembrane protein that is proteolytically cleaved to generate soluble forms. It signals through EGF R/ErbB1 which heterodimerizes with ErbB2, ErbB3, or ErbB4 and can also associate with PDGF R beta and HGF R/c-MET. During development, EGF regulates thymocyte differentiation, neuroglia production, and adipocyte maturation. In the adult, EGF plays a role in mammary gland lactogenesis, fibroblast mitosis, dissociation of the extracellular matrix, and cell migration.

Long Name:
Epidermal Growth Factor
Entrez Gene IDs:
1950 (Human); 13645 (Mouse); 25313 (Rat)
Alternate Names:
beta-urogastrone; EGF; epidermal growth factor (beta-urogastrone); epidermal growth factor; hEGF; HOMG4; pro-epidermal growth factor; URG; Urogastrone

Assay Procedure

Refer to the product for complete assay procedure.

Bring all reagents and samples to room temperature before use. It is recommended that all samples, standards, and controls be assayed in duplicate.
  1.   Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
  2.   Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.

  3. 50 µL Assay Diluent
  4.   Add 50 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.

  5. 50 µL Standard, Control, or Sample
  6.   Add 50 µL of Standard, Control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  7.   Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 4 times for a total of 5 washes.

  8. 100 µL Conjugate
  9.   Add 100 µL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  10.   Aspirate and wash 5 times.

  11. 100 µL Substrate Solution
  12.   Add 100 µL Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.

  13. 100 µL Stop Solution
