Scientific Data Images for Mouse Thrombospondin-4 Antibody

Detection of Mouse Thrombospondin-4 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Mouse Thrombospondin‑4 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of mouse muscle tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Mouse Thrombospondin-4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7860) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Thrombospondin-4 at approximately 120 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Thrombospondin-4 antibody in Mouse Skeletal Muscle by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-Fr).

Thrombospondin‑4 in Mouse Skeletal Muscle.

Thrombospondin-4 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse skeletal muscle using Sheep Anti-Mouse Thrombospondin-4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7860) at 5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to connective tissue.

Background: Thrombospondin-4

Mouse Thrombospondin-4 (TSP-4) is a 120-130 kDa adhesive glycoprotein that belongs to the thrombospondin family of proteins.  It is 963 amino acids (aa) in length and highly modular in structure, containing one Lamnin G-like domain, four EGF-like domains and eight type 3 TSP domains.  It circulates as a disulfide-linked homopentamer, and is up-regulated in the heart in response to ischemic injury and pathology. Mature mouse TSP-4 is 93% aa identical to human TSP4.
