Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects metalloproteinase inhibitor 1 (gene TIMP1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for ELISA and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 23.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 23 kDa.
TIMP-1 is a secreted tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases that binds the catalytic zinc site of many matrix metalloproteinases, including MMP-9, and blocks their activity. It also has growth factor–like, MMP-independent effects on cell survival and proliferation. TIMP-1 is studied in extracellular matrix remodeling, fibrosis, inflammation and cancer.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human HL-60 cells, human HT29 cells, human SKOV3 cells, human SiHa cells, human U2OS cells, human PC-3 cells, human THP-1 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 12% 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.
Immunogen
Recombinant human TIMP1 fragment (Cys24–Ala207), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt describes metalloproteinase inhibitor 1 as a secreted protein. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Detected in rheumatoid synovial fluid (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
