| Specificity | This antibody recognises human Delta-like protein 4 (DLL4), also known as Delta-4. DLL4 is a 685 amino acid single pass type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein of ~72 kDa containing a single DSL domain and eight EGF-like domains. Human DLL4 is the homologue of the Drosophila delta protein, and functions as a transmembrane bound ligand to the Notch receptor, Notch1. DLL4 is expressed in the vasculature and plays a critical role in vascular development. It is induced by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as a negative feedback regulator to regulate angiogenic sprouting and promote the formation of a differentiated vascular network. DLL4 is strongly expressed in tumor vessels of primary renal tumors , bladder cancer , and inhibition of DLL4 results in increased vascular proliferation but defective maturation. This in turn leads to a decrease in tumor growth, with no apparent toxicity. Expression of DLL4 in normal human dermis is low in foetal tissues, becomes more intense during early life (0-20 years) and gradually declines thereafter as shown by immunohistochemisrtry on FFPE tissues using rabbit anti human DLL4 antibody. |
