SPARC (secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine, Osteonectin, BM-40) is a matricellular glycoprotein that modulates cellular interactions with the ECM and is expressed in tissues undergoing remodeling. It functions as a de-adhesive protein, as a modulator of growth factor activity, and as a cell-cycle inhibitor. It induces changes in endothelial cell shape via F-actin, coincident with the appearance of intercellular gaps, that provide a paracellular pathway for extravasation of macromolecules. Tumor growth is enhanced in mice lacking SPARC due to changes in the ECM that create a more permissive environment for tumor progression. Additionally, SPARC is overexpressed in breast, prostate, colorectal and other cancers, and high expression of SPARC is a marker of poor prognosis in rectal cancer. In immunohistochemistry of normal tissue, SPARC has cytoplasmic positivity in endothelial cells, megakaryocytes, fibroblasts, some glial cells, seminiferous ducts of the testes, and neurons in the brain.

Product Notes
The SPARC sparc (Catalog #AAA163142) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Osteonectin/SPARC Rabbit anti-Human Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Osteonectin/SPARC can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SPARC sparc 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 "Osteonectin/SPARC, 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
