Further Information

Additional Names:
FOXA1 Antibody: HNF3A, TCF3A, HNF3A, Hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-alpha, Forkhead box protein A1, HNF-3-alpha
Application Note:
Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1ug/10^6 cells

IF: 1-2 ug/ml

IHC (FFPE): 0.5-1 ug/ml for 30 min at RT (1)

The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the FOXA1 antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.

1. Staining of FFPE tissue is enhanced by boiling sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH9 for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min.

Background:
The transcription factor Forkhead-box A1, also known as hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-alpha, is a member of the FOX class of transcription factors. HNF-1 (alpha and beta), HNF-3 (alpha, beta and gamma), HNF-4 (alpha and gamma), and HNF-6 compose, in part, a homeoprotein family designated the hepatocyte nuclear factor family. The various HNF-1 isoforms regulate transcription of genes in the liver as well as in other tissues such as kidney, small intestine and thymus. FOXA1 is expressed in normal breast ductal epithelium and other epithelium in different organs, such as lung, pancreas, bladder, prostate, and colon. Recently, FOXA1 has been shown to be a major determinant of estrogen-ER activity and endocrine response in breast cancer cells. Its expression correlates with estrogen receptor (ER)-positivity, especially in luminal subtype A breast cancers, which is associated with favorable prognosis. FOXA1 is useful in the sub-classification of breast carcinomas.
