Anti-LGALS1 Antibody

LGALS1 (Galectin-1) is a beta-galactoside-binding lectin widely studied for its roles in cell adhesion, immune modulation, and tumor microenvironments. The Antibodies.com rabbit polyclonal IgG reagent is raised against this 14 kDa target and is supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated serum in a single-use vial, ready for direct labeling in user-developed detection workflows. It is validated for Western blot (WB) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) and shows reactivity against Human, Mouse, and Rat samples, supporting cross-species comparative studies in immunology, cancer biology, and neuroscience research. The polyclonal format provides epitope diversity, increasing the chance of detecting denatured or processed LGALS1 in fixed tissue sections and western blots. For long-term storage, the antibody should be kept refrigerated or frozen in small aliquots to limit freeze-thaw cycles and preserve activity. Researchers commonly apply this reagent to investigate Galectin-1 expression in tumor biopsies, lymphocyte activation assays, and signaling studies where the lectin's role in apoptosis and T-cell regulation is of interest.
