Anti-eLGALS3 Antibody

A rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets galectin-3, a beta-galactoside-binding lectin implicated in cell adhesion, macrophage biology, and tumor progression. Supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated antisera, the antibody supports immunodetection of endogenous galectin-3 across multiple experimental systems. It is validated for Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence, and cross-reacts with human, mouse, and rat samples, supporting comparative studies in cell lines, primary tissues, and animal disease models.

Researchers studying fibrosis, oncology, and inflammatory signaling routinely use this reagent to probe galectin-3 expression in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections, fresh-frozen tissue cryosections, and cultured cells. Aliquot the vial upon first use and store refrigerated to minimize repeated freeze-thaw cycles; under proper handling the polyclonal preparation remains stable for long-term use. In Western blot, the antibody recognizes the monomeric galectin-3 band and the higher-order complexes that arise from the protein's carbohydrate-recognition-domain-driven oligomerization.
