Amyloid A Serum [clone mcl], anti-human

Description: This gene encodes a member of the serum amyloid A family of apolipoproteins. The encoded protein is a major acute phase protein that is highly expressed in response to inflammation and tissue injury. This protein also plays an important role in HDL metabolism and cholesterol homeostasis. High levels of this protein are associated with chronic inflammatory diseases including atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's disease and Crohn s disease. This protein may also be a potential biomarker for certain tumors. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 11. This antibody reacts with natural and recombinant human Serum Amyloid A (SAA) and does not cross-react with other human cytokines or growth factors tested such as IL-1beta, IL-8, MCAF, TGF-beta and EGF.Localization: cytoplasmDilution: 50-200Positive Control: liver, kidneyHIER: citrate pH6.0 or EDTA pH8.0Status: RUO
