GFAP,Glial fibillary acidic protein is an intermediate filament protein. It was found in astrocytes cells as a cell specific marker in the central nervous system development. GFAP is defective in Alexander disease. But it is highly expressed in Astrogliosis which is a result of some diseases,such as AIDS,dementia and inflammatory demyelination diseases.
应用类型
The antibody can be used in Western Blot analysis (4-10 ug/ml). However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually. Blocking peptide (Cat.# 3206BP-50) is available separately.
