Anti-SCARB1 Antibody

The polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets SCARB1, the scavenger receptor class B member 1 protein that mediates selective uptake of cholesteryl esters from high-density lipoprotein. Raised in rabbit and supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated antiserum, this reagent is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows on human, mouse, and rat samples. SCARB1 is highly expressed in liver and steroidogenic tissues where it governs cholesterol homeostasis, making it a frequent focus in lipid metabolism and cardiovascular research. Investigators studying reverse cholesterol transport, HDL particle remodeling, steroidogenesis, and hepatic lipid handling rely on this reagent to map receptor distribution in tissue sections and to confirm expression levels in whole-tissue lysates and cultured cells. The polyclonal format provides epitope diversity for detecting the full-length receptor and potential isoforms, while the unconjugated presentation allows flexible pairing with secondary reporters of the researcher's choice.
