The monoclonal antibody MGO-1recognizes human MGO modified proteins. Methylglyoxal (MGO) is an endogenous product of glucose metabolism. Increased production and accumulation of methylglyoxal (MGO), as well as increased modification of proteins by glycoxidation, are hallmarks of aging and diabetes. MGO was shown to modify proteins and to contribute to the accumulation of damaged proteins that can be toxic to cells. A number of studies have shown that MGO levels are significantly elevated in patients with Type 2 Diabetes- and correlates well with fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels. Moreover, increased formation of the MGO is implicated in renal dysfunction and is known to be involved in the development of DN (diabetic nephropathy).

Application
Immuno assays, Paraffin sections, Western blot

Application Notes
IHC-P: Sections were preincubated in 0.01 mol/l citrate, pH 6, 37°C for 10 min. Tissue sections were fixed in 4% formalin and subsequently embedded in paraffin. As positive control atherosclerotic plaques was used (Ref.1).

Use
For immunohistochemistry, dilutions to be used depend on detection system applied. It is recommended that users test the reagent and determine their own optimal dilutions. The typical starting working dilution is 1:50. For functional studies, in vitro dilutions have to be optimized in user's experimental setting.

  • New Human Complement Pathway Assays
    We are very proud of our newly developed human classical and alternative complement pathway assays. They are produced in response to a growing demand for quantitative investigation of complement inhibitors or regulators at lower sample dilutions. This development aims to address the issue of false negative results, enabling more accurate and reliable analysis of complement… Read more: New Human Complement Pathway Assays
  • Navigating the pitfalls in complement analysis
    Our colleague Erik Toonen shared his experience on how to analyze complement at the Complement-based Drug Development Summit in Boston in September 11-13th, 2023. He showed valuable insights on analyzing complements. For accurate complement analysis, it is important that not only the correct technique is used but also that pre-analytical sample handling is performed in… Read more: Navigating the pitfalls in complement analysis
  • NEW Human C3d ELISA
    We are happy to introduce our new ELISA (cat.# HK3017) designed to detect human C3d. What sets this assay apart is its utilization of a distinctive neo-epitope capture antibody that selectively targets a specific C3d region of the alpha chain, which is not available in other C3 variants. This way it specifically distinguishes C3d from native C3… Read more: NEW Human C3d ELISA
