Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets renin in human samples and is validated for IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 45.1 kDa.
Renin (REN) is an aspartic protease made and released mainly by juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney. It cuts angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I, the first and rate-limiting step of the renin–angiotensin system that raises blood pressure and promotes sodium retention, so renin levels are central to studies of blood pressure regulation and kidney physiology.

Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human renal cancer 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
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human REN/Renin. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 95% and 95%, respectively.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes renin as secreted and also located in the membrane.
