Anti-SSTR5 Antibody

Supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated liquid reagent and raised in rabbit against human Somatostatin Receptor 5 (SSTR5), this polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com supports research workflows in receptor biology, islet signaling, and neuroendocrine tumor characterization. SSTR5 is a G protein-coupled membrane receptor that binds somatostatin and regulates hormone secretion in pancreatic islets, the gastrointestinal tract, and selected neuronal populations. The reagent is validated for Western blot analysis on cell lysates and for immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue, with reactivity confirmed against human and mouse samples. For IHC, a standard indirect method using HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG with DAB chromogen is commonly applied; Western blot detection is typically performed with chemiluminescent substrate. The vial should be aliquoted upon arrival to minimize freeze-thaw cycles, with short-term storage possible at 4 °C and long-term storage recommended at -20 °C. Intended for research use only.
