The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab47720, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1](ab91353, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HeLa cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Tween used under the same conditions.

補足情報

Inhibin alpha also known as alpha-inhibin is a subunit of the inhibin protein complex. As a 32 kDa glycoprotein inhibin exerts its role as a modulator of hormone activities by forming heterodimers with various beta subunits typically expressed in the gonads adrenal glands and pituitary gland. Inhibin alpha not only influences the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) but also acts as an important player in reproductive endocrinology. Its expression can be assessed through inh alpha R1 and po12 markers offering insights through inhibin immunohistochemistry.
Biological function summary

Inhibin alpha forms part of the inhibin hormone complex which primarily serves as a negative regulator of FSH secretion. Insufficient levels of inhibin can disrupt normal metabolic functions impacting reproductive systems. The inhibin alpha subunit is vital for maintaining reproductive homeostasis and monitoring the inhibin staining pattern provides a useful diagnostic tool in reproductive health assessments. Inhibin binds to activin receptors where it blocks FSH release from the anterior pituitary gland reinforcing its role in managing the reproductive axis.

Pathways

Inhibin alpha is critically involved in the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling pathway. This pathway plays a major role in cell differentiation and proliferation where inhibin competes with activin for the same receptors ultimately reducing FSH synthesis. Additionally inhibin functions within endocrine regulatory mechanisms ensuring the reproductive hormones maintain their balance alongside related proteins such as activin and follistatin each contributing uniquely to signaling processes.

Inhibin alpha alterations can significantly influence conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and certain gonadal tumors. Abnormal levels of inhibin are often observed in PCOS where disrupted endocrine feedback leads to infertility issues. Gonadal tumors also relate to increased inhibin expression providing a biomarker for diagnosis and progression monitoring. Through these diseases inhibin alpha interacts with proteins such as luteinizing hormone playing part in their systemic dysfunctions within the affected individuals.

ターゲットの情報

Inhibins and activins inhibit and activate, respectively, the secretion of follitropin by the pituitary gland. Inhibins/activins are involved in regulating a number of diverse functions such as hypothalamic and pituitary hormone secretion, gonadal hormone secretion, germ cell development and maturation, erythroid differentiation, insulin secretion, nerve cell survival, embryonic axial development or bone growth, depending on their subunit composition. Inhibins appear to oppose the functions of activins.. Inhibin A is a dimer of alpha/INHA and beta-A/INHBA that functions as a feedback regulator in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Inhibits the secretion of FSH from the anterior pituitary gland by acting on pituitary gonadotrope cells. Antagonizes activin A by binding to the proteoglycan, betaglycan, and forming a stable complex with and, thereby, sequestering type II activin receptors while excluding type I receptor.. Inhibin B is a dimer of alpha and beta-B that plays a crucial role in the regulation of the reproductive system by inhibiting the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the anterior pituitary gland. Thereby, maintains reproductive homeostasis in both males and females. Acts as a more potent suppressor of FSH release than inhibin A (By similarity). Functions as competitive receptor antagonist binding activin type II receptors with high affinity in the presence of the TGF-beta type III coreceptor/TGFBR3L (PubMed : 34910520).
