Given the ever increasing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that regulate lipolysis, Vala Sciences Inc is proud to introduce a new monoclonal antibody that is excellent at visualizing perilipin in immunocytofluorescence labeling applications. This new mouse monoclonal antibody recognizes perilipin whether or not lipolytic pathways have been activated in the cell. Labeling with the antibody is exceptionally specific, with virtually no background, and the labeling pattern is very tightly associated with the outer surface of the lipid droplets, as expected for perilipin. This antibody is expected to be of high interest to researchers investigating hormonal control of lipolysis.

Given the ever increasing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that regulate lipolysis, Vala Sciences Inc is proud to introduce a new monoclonal antibody that is excellent at visualizing perilipin in immunocytofluorescence labeling applications. This monoclonal antibody selectively recognizes perilipin that has been phosphorylated on serine 497, a site of PKA-mediated phosphorylation. Thus, for the first time, a tool is available in which phosphorylated perilipin can be visualized in fixed cells via immunocytofluorescence labeling procedures and fluorescence microscopy. This antibody is expected to be of high interest to researchers investigating hormonal control of lipolysis.

b-catenin, the mammalian homologue of Drosophila Armadillo, is a dual purpose protein of high interest to biomedical researchers concerned with tumor formation. In normal epithelial cells, b-catenin is found at the plasma membrane. b-catenin expression and localization can be quantified in cultured cells with Vala Sciences Inc.’s b-catenin kit.

E-cadherin, a cell-cell adhesion molecule, is frequently downregulated in a wide variety of tumors （breast, skin, prostate, gastric, and colon cancers）, suggesting that it is an important tumor suppressor. E-cadherin is the major binding partner for -catenin, and E-cadherin downregulation is often accompanied by beta-catenin translocation to the nucleus, and the stimulation of cell division. E-cadherin expression and localization can be quantified in cultured cells with Vala Sciences Inc’s E-cadherin kit.

Lipid droplets are the primary fat storage organelles of fat cells （adipocytes）. Lipid droplet size, and number are altered by anti-diabetic and anti-obesity drugs and these effects can be quantified utilizing Vala Science Inc’s Lipid Droplet Kit. The kit can also be utilized to quantify lipid droplets in murine 3T3 L1 adipocytes.

N-cadherin, a cell-cell adhesion molecule, is upregulated in many tumor types （including breast, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancers） and may be involved in metastastic potential. N-cadherin often replaces E-cadherin during tumorigenesis, a phenomenon referred to as the “cadherin switch”. N-cadherin expression and cellular localization can be quantified in cultured cells with Vala Sciences Inc’s N-cadherin kit.

Accurate quantitation of cadherin expression and localiztion as they are related to cell adhesion, tissue structure and mitotic signaling are valuable across a variety of biomedical contexts including cell differentiation, embryonology, neurobiology, vascular pharmacology, and oncology. Vala Sciences’ Pan-cadherin assay kits, used in conjunction with Vala’s CyteSeer® automated cell image analysis software, enable precise quantification of cadherin expression and localization.

Perilipin is a protein that associates with lipid droplets in mature adipocytes and is involved in lipid droplet metabolism. The association of perilipin with lipid droplets in primary human adipocytes can be quantified through use of Vala Science Inc’s Perilipin kit.

Protein kinase Cα（PKCα）, a key regulatory protein in signal transduction pathways modulating cancer and inflammation, is activated via G-protein coupled receptors, tumor promoting chemicals, and other stimuli. Activation of PKCa depends upon migration of PKCa from the cytoplasm to the cell membrane. The expression and activation of this important signal transduction molecule can be quantified in cultured cells （validated for HeLa, UMR106, or IEC18 cells）, with Vala Sciences Inc’s PKCa kit.

VE-cadherin is expressed by vascular endothelial cells where it regulates cell-cell adhesion, angiogenesis, and vascular permeability. VE-cadherin is upregulated in breast cancer and may participate in tumor-associated angiogenesis. VE-cadherin expression and localization can be quantified in cultured cells with Vala Sciences Inc’s VE-cadherin kit.
