Application Notes | The antibody was generated in order to establish a mouse model for in vivo pre-clinical evaluation of therapies targeting EGFR. The antibody was able to recognize the murine and human EGFR expressed on 3LL or A431 tumor cell lines by flow cytometry. Moreover, the antibody could immunoprecipitate EGFR of 3LL cell lysate, it was used in immunohistochemistry on mouse skin tissue and mammary adenocarcinoma, and it was able to detect EGFR in Western blots (Garrido et al., 2004; PMID: 15312307). The antibody inhibited EGF-induced EGFR signaling in D122 tumor cells by reducing EGFR phosphorylation as well as the phosphorylation of molecules involved in downstream EGFR signaling; the antibody showed strong anti-metastatic activity on D122 tumors, for which the contribution of T cells is essential (Garrido et al., 2007). The crystal structure of the Fab fragment of the antibody was determined. |
