The CSPG5 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO08636) is a valuable tool for researchers studying CSPG5, a cell surface molecule implicated in various cellular processes. This antibody is raised in rabbits and specifically targets CSPG5 in human samples, providing reliable results in Western blot applications. By binding to the CSPG5 protein, researchers can detect and analyze CSPG5 expression in different cell types, making it suitable for studies in neuroscience and developmental biology.CSPG5, also known as chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 5, plays a crucial role in cell adhesion, migration, and signaling pathways within the nervous system.
Its involvement in neural development and synaptic plasticity makes it a fascinating target for research into neurological disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Understanding the functions of CSPG5 could lead to potential therapeutic interventions for conditions like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and spinal cord injuries.
May function as a growth and differentiation factor involved in neuritogenesis. May induce ERBB3 activation.
