ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To prepare and identify a polyclonal antibody (pAb) against GPR17, a novel cysteinyl leukotriene receptor.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Rabbits were immunized with KLH-coupled GPR17 peptide to prepare the pAb. The titer of the pAb in rabbit plasma was detected by indirect ELISA, and the specificity of the pAb was tested by antigen blockade. GPR17 tissue distribution was detected by Western blot with the pAb.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The pAb showed a titer as high as 116 364,and was not cross-reacted with the antigens of CysLT(1) and CysLT(2) receptors. A higher expression of GPR17 in the rat brain and heart was detected using the newly prepared pAb. The molecular weigh of GPR17 protein was about 43 kD.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The prepared GPR17 pAb has high sensitivity and specificity,and can be used in Western blot for detecting GPR17.</p>
