The CALCA Polyclonal Antibody (PAC04942) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the CALCA gene, which encodes for calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide involved in various physiological processes. This antibody, produced in collaboration with Assay Genie, is highly specific to human samples and has been validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting and immunohistochemistry.CALCA, also known as CGRP, is a key player in pain signaling and inflammation, making it an important target for research in the fields of neurobiology, pain management, and cardiovascular disease.
By binding to the CALCA protein, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis of CGRP expression in different cell types and tissue samples, providing researchers with valuable insights into its function and potential therapeutic applications.Overall, the CALCA Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable tool for investigating the role of CGRP in various physiological and pathological conditions, offering researchers the means to advance their understanding of this important neuropeptide and its implications for human health.
