Related Product Information for anti-CSPG4 antibody
NG2 antibody is an unconjugated rabbit polyclonal antibody to human NG2 (CSPG4). Validated for IHC and WB.
CSPG4 (Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4, MCSP, NG2) is a transmembrane proteoglycan that functions in angiogenesis, cell survival and migration, and the modulation of neuronal networks and pericyte functions. CSPG4 is an important prognostic marker in cancer, as it is upregulated in glioblastoma and is expressed on the cell surface of malignant melanoma cells, where it is involved in progression and spreading. In normal tissue, CSPG4 is highly expressed on NG2-glia cells in the brain, and is also found on osteoblasts, melanocytes, smooth muscle cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and pericytes. It is also a useful marker for oligodendrocyte precursor cells in developing and adult humans. Mutations in CSPG4 can result in a disruption in white matter integrity and oligodendrocyte morphology in the brain and are correlated with familial schizophrenia. In immunohistochemistry, CSGP4 has membranous and cytoplasmic positivity in all tissues throughout the body.

Product Notes
The CSPG4 cspg4 (Catalog #AAA162919) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The CSPG4/NG2 Rabbit anti-Human Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's CSPG4/NG2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot), IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CSPG4 cspg4 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CSPG4/NG2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
