This Antibody was verified by Relative expression to ensure that the antibody binds to the antigen stated.
FIGURE: 1 / 4
CTGF Antibody (MA5-26818) in IHC (P)
Immunohistochemistry was performed on paraffin-embedded human liver tissue. To expose target proteins, 1 mM EDTA in 10mM Tris, pH8.5, 120°C for 3min was used. Following antigen retrieval, tissues were probed with a CTGF monoclonal antibody (Product # MA5-26818).

Target Information
Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF), also called CCN2, is a member of the CCN family. CTGF is a secreted protein produced by umbilical veins and vascular endothelial cells. CTGF possesses an Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF)-binding domain, a thrombospondin type 1 domain, and a cysteine knot region. CTGF plays important roles in the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes, induces angiogenesis, and promotes cell adhesion in fibroblasts, endothelial, and epithelial cells.
