W23168D_PURE_Bxl-XL_WB_063025
Whole cell extracts (15 µg total protein per lane) from HAP1 WT cells (Horizon Cat. No. C631) or HAP1 BCL2L1 (Bcl-X) Knockout cells (Horizon Cat. No. HD HAP1-65076) were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a PVDF membrane, and probed with Purified anti-Bcl-XL (clone W23168D). Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using HRP Goat anti-rat IgG (Cat. No. 405405). Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-GAPDH (Cat. No. 607903) was used as a loading control. Western-Ready™ ECL Substrate Premium Kit (Cat. No. 426319) was used as a detection agent. Lane M: Molecular weight marker.

    IHC staining of BCL-XL was performed on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human prostate cancer tissue following antigen retrieval using 1X Tris-EDTA pH 9.0 Antigen Retrieval Buffer (Cat. No. 422704). The tissue sections were incubated without (panel A) or with anti-BCL-XL (clone W23168D) (panel B and C) followed by incubation with Alexa Fluor® 647 Goat anti-rat IgG (Cat. No. 405416). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Cat. No. 422801) (overlay in panels A and C). Scale Bar: 50 µm

Description

Bcl-X, a member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins, is encoded by the BCL2L1 gene and plays a crucial role in regulating apoptosis. Bcl-X exists in two main isoforms: Bcl-XL, which is anti-apoptotic, and Bcl-XS, which is pro-apoptotic. The balance between these isoforms is regulated through alternative splicing, influenced by various splice factors, transcription factors, and signaling pathways. Dysregulation of Bcl-X splicing has been implicated in several diseases, particularly cancer and diabetes. In cancer, overexpression of Bcl-XL can lead to resistance to chemotherapy, while in diabetes, increased Bcl-XS expression can result in apoptosis of pancreatic β-cells.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by western blotting. For western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 0.125 - 1.0 µg/mL. For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 1.0 - 10.0 µg/mL is suggested. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.125 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Application Notes

Due to homology, this antibody may detect the isoform Bcl-XS (18.8 kDa) which is a result of alternative splicing. However, in Western Blot, this isoform was not detected. The canonical sequence, isoform Bcl-XL, was detected by this antibody in Western Blot.

Additional Product Notes

For use of this antibody in intracellular flow cytometry (ICFC), we recommend fixation and permeabilization either using True-Nuclear™ Transcription Factor Buffer set (Cat. No. 424401) or Cyto-Fast™ Fix-Perm Buffer set (Cat. No. 426803).

We DO NOT recommend using True-Phos™ Perm Buffer (Cat. No. 425401).

For use of this antibody in immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues (IHC-P), we recommend antigen retrieval using either Citrate Buffer (Cat. No. 420902), or Tris-EDTA pH 9.0 Antigen Retrieval Buffer (Cat. No. 422704).
