Anti-OLR1 Antibody

OLR1 (oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1, also called LOX-1) is a type II transmembrane scavenger receptor of the C-type lectin family that binds oxidized LDL and contributes to endothelial dysfunction, foam-cell formation, and atherosclerotic plaque progression. This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com was raised against human OLR1 and is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry work on human samples. The antibody is supplied as 100 µl of a 1 mg/ml stock in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, and should be stored aliquoted at -20°C to limit freeze-thaw cycles. Researchers studying cardiovascular inflammation, vascular biology, and tumor microenvironment signaling use the antibody to track LOX-1 upregulation on endothelial cells, macrophages, and smooth muscle cells.
