Natriuretic peptide precursor B, commonly known as BNP or brain natriuretic peptide, serves as a critical biomarker in cardiovascular research and clinical diagnostics. Produced primarily by ventricular cardiomyocytes in response to mechanical stretch and neurohormonal activation, NPPB and its cleavage products—including the widely measured NT-proBNP fragment—provide valuable insights into cardiac function, heart failure progression, and hemodynamic stress. Understanding NPPB expression patterns and regulation remains essential for researchers investigating cardiac pathophysiology, biomarker development, and therapeutic interventions targeting the natriuretic peptide system.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 5D7, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding cardiovascular research requires. Generated against recombinant human NPPB protein and expressed with a human IgG1 framework, this antibody provides sequence-defined specificity that eliminates the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived reagents. Affinity chromatography purification ensures high purity suitable for sensitive detection methods.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable performance in flow cytometry applications, with testing conducted on 786-O cells using intracellular staining protocols. The recommended dilution range of 1:50 to 1:200 for flow cytometry provides flexibility for optimization across different experimental conditions. The antibody has also been validated for ELISA applications, supporting quantitative detection workflows.
Supplied in a glycerol-based PBS buffer at pH 7.4 with Proclin 300 preservative, this unconjugated format allows researchers to select secondary detection systems best suited to their specific instrumentation and experimental design. This antibody supports investigations into cardiac biomarker biology, heart failure mechanisms, and natriuretic peptide signaling pathways where consistent, reliable detection of human NPPB is essential.
