Anti-SSTR5 Antibody

A rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com, raised against Somatostatin Receptor 5 (SSTR5), a class A G-protein-coupled receptor that mediates the inhibitory effects of somatostatin on hormone secretion, cell proliferation, and neuronal activity. This unconjugated IgG reagent is supplied as 100 µL of polyclonal serum and is validated for Western blot detection of human SSTR5.

Researchers studying neuroendocrine tumor biology, pancreatic islet signaling, gastrointestinal hormone regulation, and GPCR pharmacology use SSTR5 antibodies to map receptor expression across tissues and cell lines, characterize ligand-binding behavior, and probe downstream signaling through Gi/o-coupled pathways that suppress cAMP accumulation. The polyclonal format provides broader epitope coverage than monoclonal alternatives, supporting recognition of multiple regions of the receptor in denatured samples prepared for SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting.

Storage at -20 °C in working aliquots helps preserve activity and limit freeze-thaw cycles, which is useful when the reagent is consumed slowly across multiple experiments. Each vial delivers 100 µL of antibody, intended for routine Western blot workflows against human samples.
