Validation Data Gallery

• 

  WB analysis of RAW 264.7 using 20189-1-AP

  RAW 264.7 cells were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 20189-1-AP (MAFB Antibody) at dilution of 1:1000 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours.

• 

  FC experiment of RAW 264.7 using 20189-1-AP

  1X10^6 RAW 264.7 cells were intracellularly stained with 0.4 ug Anti-Human MAFB (20189-1-AP) and CoraLite®488-Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L) at dilution 1:1000 (red), or 0.4 ug Rabbit IgG control Rabbit PolyAb (30000-0-AP, Clone: ) (blue). Cells were fixed and permeabilized with Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Kit (PF00011).

Background Information

MAFB (MAF BZIP Transcription Factor B), also known as V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B, is a widely expressed basic leucine zipper transcription factor belonging to the Maf family. MAFB expression is significantly elevated in response to a broad range of metabolic and immunological stimuli that promote macrophage M2 polarization, cholesterol efflux, or both, whereas it is strongly down-regulated in response to various pro-inflammatory pathogenic triggers(PMID: 28790455). MAFB is highly expressed in tumor tissues and required for proliferation and tumorigenicity of osteosarcoma cells(PMID: 32234710) and is a marker of tumor-associated macrophages in both mouse and human(PMID: 31679694).
