Anti-PDPN Antibody

Podoplanin (PDPN) is a mucin-type transmembrane glycoprotein widely studied as a marker of lymphatic endothelial differentiation and as a factor implicated in tumor cell invasion and metastasis. This polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com is raised in rabbit and supplied as an unconjugated reagent in a 100 µl volume, intended for Western blot (WB) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) workflows on human samples. Researchers apply it to characterize podoplanin expression in lymphoid tissue, squamous cell carcinomas, gliomas, and renal podocytes, where it helps distinguish lymphatic vessels from blood vasculature and supports investigations of the tumor microenvironment and metastatic spread. The polyclonal format provides recognition of multiple epitopes, which can be advantageous when probing targets that show variable expression or post-translational modification across different tissue contexts.
