Cat. No.: HY-P9914 Purity: 99.88%
Technical Support

Eculizumab (Anti-Human C5, Humanized Antibody) is a long-acting humanized monoclonal antibody targeted against complement C5. Eculizumab inhibits the cleavage of C5 into C5a and C5b and inhibits deployment of the terminal complement system including the formation of membrane attack complex (MAC). Eculizumab prevents anti-ganglioside antibody-mediated neuropathy in mice. Eculizumab can be used in hemolysis studies.

    Cyclic peptide Cp1, Cp3 or anti-C5 antibody (Eculizumab)-induced erythrocyte hemolysis rate quantified by hemoglobin absorbance at 540 nm, n = 3.

    Eculizumab purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Cell. 2025 May 29;188(11):3013-3029.e19.  [Abstract]

    The quantification of free Hb from human RBCs as indicated in vitro (n = 4). The results showed that the administration of Eculizumab (50 mg/mL; 30 min) significantly hampered the release of free Hb induced by activated complement compared with that of controls.

    LDH assay results with cell lysis normalized to lysis buffer-treated cells and additional AC/IC-only background absorbance subtraction. Effects of Eculizumab on U-87MG-AQP4-ECFP cells after complement and E5415A treatment. Cells were treated with active or heat-inactivated human complement (AC/IC) in combination with E5415A (10 µg/mL). In addition to E5415A + AC, complement inhibitors against C5 (Eculizumab, 30 µg/mL) were added to the complement 15 min before the application on cells.

    Eculizumab purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Sci Rep. 2025 Dec 8;15(1):43346.  [Abstract]

    qPCR results of genes differently expressed in U-87MG-AQP4-ECFP cells after complement and E5415A treatment. Log2-fold changes of E5415A + AC/IC with or without Eculizumab (30 µg/mL; 15 min)-treated cells were compared to untreated controls. GAPDH served as a housekeeping gene, and all ΔCt values of all genes were calculated before the normalization to untreated cells.

    Effect of complement inhibition and FcγRII blockade on patient serum-induced platelet aggregation in HIMEA. Platelet aggregation induced by patients’ serum obtained during active disease (T2Pre) in the presence of (UFH, 100 IU/mL) was reduced by treatment with the anti-C5 antibody Eculizumab (0.35 mg/mL; 20 min), the C3 inhibitor compstatin (0.12 and 0.18 mg/mL), or the FcγRII-blocking antibody IV.3 (35 μg/mL). Results are expressed as the percentage of residual platelet reactivity relative to aggregation observed with UFH 100 IU/mL alone.

    In Vitro

    Eculizumab (3-100 μg/mL) completely prevents MAC deposition, terminal axonal neurofilament loss, and damage to perisynaptic Schwann cells, and inhibits the increase in MEPP frequency, asynchronous twitching of muscle fibres, and the occurrence of 'silent' NMJs, and prevents CGM3/NHS-induced loss of contraction force in a concentration-dependent manner in the in vitro MFS model[1].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Eculizumab (200 μg; i.v.; before intraperitoneal injection of NHS) completely prevents the development of weakness, respiratory difficulties, and almost completely prevents the occurrence of 'silent' NMJs, and preserves the normal contraction and NMJ function in the in vivo Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) mouse model[1].

    Biological Activity
    • Flow cytometric analysis of 1X106 HepG2 cells with Eculizumab (HY-P9914, red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% methanol. Then stained with the primary antibody at 1/50 dilution for an hour at 4℃. Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Human IgG H&L (HY-P83776) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution for 30 minutes at 4℃. Human IgG2 kappa Isotype Control (HY-P99002, blue) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody were used as the unlabeled control (black).

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
