Application: Anti-ANXA3 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: ANXA3 (Annexin A3) gene encodes a calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein belonging to the annexin family. It inhibits phopholipase A2 and cleaves the cyclic bond of inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate to form inositol 1-phosphate. It functions as an anti-coagulant. It promotes migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. It induces the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) via the HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor-1) pathway and functions as an angiogenic factor. Annexin A3 also inhibits adipocyte differentiation.
