TGFβ signals through TGFBR2 to drive fibrogenesis.

Reliable TGFBR2 antibodies are essential for studying disease mechanisms and developing new therapies.

4 of 11 commercial antibodies recognized TGFBR2 specifically.

TGFBR2 antibody screening by western blot using protein lysates. Protein lysates from A549 WT and TGFBR2 KO cells were collected, and 30μg of protein was used for western blot with the indicated TGFBR2 antibodies. The Ponceau stained transfers of each blot are presented to show equal loading of WT and KO samples. Antibody dilutions were chosen according to the recommendations of the antibody supplier. Antibody dilutions used: ab184948** at 1/1000, ab259360** at 1/1000, ab270440** at 1/500, ARP44743_T100 at 1/500, 41896S** at 1/1000, GTX129909 at 1/1000, 66636-1-Ig* at 1/1000, MAB2411* at 1/500, 701683** at 1/500, MA5-51441** at 1/1000, MA5-55343** at 1/1000. Predicted band size: 64.6kDa. ** = recombinant antibody, * = monoclonal antibody.

Choosing your first primary antibody? Validation, manufacturer transparency, and citation history all matter more than people think.

Proteintech manufactures and validates every antibody in-house, guided by our own validation policy: https://bit.ly/4y0Ur7J

#AntibodyValidation
Gloved hands handling a blue box labeled "Proteintech" with a text overlay saying "What We Wish Every Researcher Knew Before Choosing an Antibody." Various lab items are visible on a light surface. Laboratory supplies including pipette tips, reagent bottles, and a Proteintech-branded box are arranged on a surface. A black overlay features text discussing experiment validation, emphasizing the use of real controls and the validation of every antibody by Proteintech. A digital note from "proteintech" is displayed over a background image of red and turquoise cells. The note reads: "Who made the antibody? A lot of suppliers sell antibodies made by other companies under their own label. If something goes wrong, no one can tell you why. Proteintech manufactures every single antibody in-house, from antigen design to final quality control, so there’s full traceability to the scientists who generated and validated them. (You can also request raw validation files.)" A person in laboratory attire works with a pipette. Text overlays include a note about verifying antibody use and mention that Proteintech antibodies have over 500,000 product citations. Proteintech logo is visible.

Before RRIDs, only 10% of papers cited the antibody catalog number used in the experiment, making reproducibility nearly impossible.

Two individuals are speaking into microphones in a podcast setting. The background includes plants and decorative items. Text on the image includes a conversation: "People were not putting enough information" and "in the manuscripts so we could find those antibodies." The "proteintech podcast" logo is visible. "A podcast recording with two individuals having a conversation in a studio setting. The top image features one person speaking into a microphone, with text: 'There was about a 10% rate of addition.' The bottom image shows another individual engaged in the discussion, with text: 'of the antibody's catalog number into the literature.' The setting includes microphones, plants, and branded logos of 'proteintech podcast.'" In a podcast studio, two individuals are speaking into microphones. The top image shows one person sitting near a plant and a water bottle labeled "RRID." The bottom image features another person sitting near a tall plant with subtitles that read, "They improved the ability to find those products." Both images display the "profeintech podcast" logo. Two people are seated in separate podcast studio settings with microphones. The first person is gesturing while speaking, and the second person is seated in a different scene, also speaking. Text overlays display their discussion: "From that [previous] 10%, 50% were now findable" and "And we moved from that to 90%!" The logo "Proteintech Podcast" is visible on both scenes. Both settings have decorated shelves with plants and a framed item in the background.
