Product Specific Information
PA3-821A detects peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) gamma from human and mouse samples. This antibody is a reproduction of PA3-821, using the same immunizing peptide and new host rabbits.

PA3-821A has been successfully used in Western blot procedures. Previous batches of this antibody have been used in gel shift, immunocytochemistry, and immunofluoresence procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects a 57 kDa protein representing PPAR gamma 2 from differentiated mouse 3T3-L1 cell lysate. Immunolocalization of previous batches gives predominant nuclear staining. In Western blot, this antibody detects a non-specific band at approx. 43 kDa in NIH-3T3 cell lysates.

The PA3-821A immunizing peptide corresponds to amino acid residues 284-298 from mouse PPAR gamma 2. This sequence is completely conserved in PPAR gamma 1, but exhibits no significant homology with PPAR alpha or NUC1. This sequence is completely conserved in mouse, human, and rat.
General Information
Peroxisome proliferators are non-genotoxic carcinogens which are purported to exert their effect on cells through their interaction with members of the nuclear
hormone receptor family termed peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPAR’s). Nuclear hormone receptors are ligand-dependent intracellular proteins
that stimulate transcription of specific genes by binding to specific DNA sequences following activation by the appropriate ligand. Studies indicate that PPAR’s are activated by peroxisome proliferators such as clofibric acid, nafenopin, and WY- 14,643, as well as by some fatty acids. It has also been shown that PPAR’s can induce transcription of acyl coenzyme A oxidase & cytochrome P450 (CYP450) A6 through interaction with specific response elements. The PPAR gamma 2 isoform appears to be induced very early in the differentiation of several cultured adipocyte cell lines, and has been suggested to be a dominant regulator of the murine P2 (aP2) gene which encodes an intracellular lipid binding protein which is expressed only in adipose cells. PPAR gamma 2, like several other nuclear hormone receptors, heterodimerizes with RXR alpha.

Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes, blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature and probed with a PPAR gamma polyclonal antibody (Product # PA3-821A) in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:200 and incubated overnight at 4 ºC in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight 488-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody in PBS at room temperature in the dark. F-actin (red) was stained with a flourescent red phalloidin and nuclei (blue) were stained with DAPI for 5-10 minutes in the dark. Images were taken at a magnification of 60x.

    Western Blot with anti-PPAR gamma Polyclonal Antibody (PA3-821A)

    Western Blot with anti-PPAR gamma Polyclonal Antibody (PA3-821A)

    Western blot analysis of PPAR was performed by loading 25 ug of 3T3-L1 (Lane 1), NIH-3T3 (Lane 2), and Hela (Lane 3) cell lysates and a molecular weight protein ladder onto an SDS polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with a blocking buffer at 4ºC overnight. The membrane was probed with a PPAR polyclonal antibody (Product # PA3-821A) at a dilution of 1:1000 (3T3-L1 and Hela) and 1:500 (NIH-3T3) overnight at 4°C, washed in TBST, and probed with an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 hr at room temperature in the dark. Results show a band at 57 kDa in all three cell lysates.
