Immunohistochemical staining of GPNMB using anti-GPNMB antibody. GPNMB was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human liver cancer. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1ug/ml rabbit anti-GPNMB antibody overnight at 4oC. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37oC. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) with DAB as the chromogen.

Lane 1: rat liver tissue lysates, Lane 2: mouse liver tissue lysates, Lane 3: mouse kidney tissue lysates. After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-GPNMB antibody at 0.5 ug/ml overnight at 4oC, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal was developed using enhanced chemiluminescent. The expected molecular weight of unglycosylated GPNMB is at ~64 kDa.

Description

GPNMB antibody detects Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB, a type I membrane protein involved in cell adhesion, differentiation, and tissue repair. The UniProt recommended name is Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB (GPNMB). Also known as Osteoactivin or HGFN, this glycoprotein is expressed in osteoclasts, melanocytes, macrophages, and tumor cells, where it contributes to cell signaling and microenvironment remodeling.

Functionally, GPNMB antibody identifies a 560-amino-acid glycoprotein with an extracellular domain containing an RGD-like integrin-binding motif, a transmembrane helix, and a short cytoplasmic tail with a tyrosine-based sorting signal. GPNMB facilitates cell-matrix interaction and promotes osteoblast differentiation, pigment cell function, and immune modulation. It is also upregulated during tissue repair and inflammation, reflecting its role in regeneration and immune regulation.

The GPNMB gene is located on chromosome 7p15.2 and encodes a protein expressed in bone, skin, brain, and immune cells. In macrophages and dendritic cells, GPNMB modulates cytokine release and antigen presentation, while in osteoclasts it contributes to bone resorption and remodeling. The protein undergoes ectodomain shedding, releasing soluble fragments that influence neighboring cells.

Pathologically, GPNMB is overexpressed in several cancers, including melanoma, breast, and glioma, where it promotes migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. It also plays roles in neurodegenerative diseases and inflammation. Because of its surface localization, GPNMB serves as a potential therapeutic target and biomarker. Research using GPNMB antibody supports studies of tumor biology, osteogenesis, and immune signaling.

GPNMB antibody is suitable for western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry to detect membrane-associated and soluble GPNMB. NSJ Bioreagents offers validated GPNMB antibody reagents designed for research in cell adhesion, tumor biology, and tissue regeneration.

Structurally, Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB features multiple N-glycosylation sites contributing to stability and cell-surface expression. The cytoplasmic domain interacts with intracellular adaptors, linking extracellular signals to intracellular pathways. This antibody enables detection of GPNMB in studies of cell communication, repair, and disease progression.

Application Notes

Optimal dilution of the GPNMB antibody should be determined by the researcher.

Immunogen

E.coli-derived mouse GPNMB recombinant protein (Position: R164-D564) was used as the immunogen for the GPNMB antibody.

Storage

After reconstitution, the GPNMB antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
