Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (gene IGFBP1) in human samples and is validated for IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 27.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 30 kDa.
IGFBP-1 is a secreted insulin-like growth factor binding protein produced mainly by the liver and by decidualized endometrium. It binds IGF-1 and IGF-2 and controls their access to receptors, with levels acutely regulated by insulin and nutritional state, and it can also signal through integrin α5β1 to promote cell migration.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HepG2 cells, human A549 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human placenta tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Recombinant human IGFBP1 fragment (Ala69–Asn259), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 67.8% and 69.3%, respectively.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 as a secreted protein. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
