Anti-Tenascin-C Antibody

Tenascin-C is a hexameric extracellular matrix glycoprotein that shows restricted expression in healthy adult tissue but becomes strongly upregulated during wound healing, fibrotic remodeling, and tumor stromal responses. This rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com binds the Tenascin-C target in human, mouse, and rat samples and is validated specifically for western blot applications such as probing lysates from glioma xenografts, infarcted myocardium, or activated fibroblast cultures.

The reagent is supplied unconjugated at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 0.05% sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2, and is provided as a 100 µl vial that supports many blotting experiments at standard working dilutions. For best results, aliquot the antibody upon arrival to limit repeated freeze-thaw cycles, refrigerate for active use, and freeze at -20°C for longer-term storage; sodium azide in the buffer helps prevent microbial contamination.
