Erythropoietin (EPO) serves as the principal regulator of red blood cell production, orchestrating erythropoiesis through its interaction with receptors on erythroid progenitor cells in the bone marrow. Beyond its classical role in oxygen homeostasis, EPO has garnered significant research attention for its cytoprotective effects in non-hematopoietic tissues, its involvement in tumor biology, and its therapeutic applications in anemia management. Understanding EPO expression patterns and tissue distribution remains essential for researchers investigating hypoxia response pathways, kidney physiology, and various disease states.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 30F12, offers the reproducibility that demanding research protocols require. Generated against recombinant human EPO protein and produced using recombinant technology, this antibody provides sequence-defined consistency between lots, eliminating the variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The human IgG1 isotype format and affinity chromatography purification ensure reliable performance with minimal background interference.
Validation studies demonstrate effective immunohistochemical detection in human tissues, with optimized staining observed in paraffin-embedded liver and kidney sections at dilutions of 1:50 to 1:200. These tissue types represent physiologically relevant contexts for EPO research, as the kidney serves as the primary site of EPO production in adults while the liver contributes during fetal development and certain pathological conditions. The antibody has also been validated for ELISA applications, providing flexibility across different experimental workflows.
This antibody supports investigations into erythropoiesis regulation, tissue hypoxia responses, renal pathophysiology, and the expanding field of EPO's non-hematopoietic functions, making it a valuable tool for both basic science and translational research programs.
