This antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration between Rockland and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP) is expressed in the stroma of sites that are undergoing wound healing. In addition, it has recently been reported that FAP is expressed in the stroma of sites of metastatic disease. Inhibition of FAP may lead to a dramatic decrease in the number of metastatic osteosarcoma lung nodules. FAP exists as an inactive monomer and when activated forms homodimers or heterodimers with DPP4. Multiple isoforms of FAP are reported as alternative splicing products from a common gene.

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 µL). To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 µL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.
