Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects protein Wnt-4 (gene WNT4) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 39.1 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 45–50 kDa.
Wnt-4 is a secreted Wnt ligand that signals through Frizzled receptors during organ development. It drives the mesenchyme-to-epithelium transition that forms nephrons in the embryonic kidney and supports female reproductive development, including Müllerian duct formation and ovarian differentiation, and it also contributes to lung and adrenal development.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human MCF-7 cells, human HeLa cells, human Jurkat cells, human K562 cells, rat testis tissue, mouse testis tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 10% 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 kidney tissue, mouse kidney tissue, rat kidney 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 WNT4 fragment (Lys100–Glu274), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
