Scientific Data Images for Human Chondroadherin Antibody

Detection of Human Chondroadherin antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human Chondroadherin by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of human cartilage tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 2 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human Chondroadherin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF8218) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Chondroadherin at approximately 34-36 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Chondroadherin antibody in Human Cartilage by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

Chondroadherin in Human Cartilage.

Chondroadherin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human cartilage using Sheep Anti-Human Chondroadherin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF8218) at 1 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 cytoplasm of chondrocytes. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Background: Chondroadherin

Chondroadherin is an approximately 36 kDa secreted glycosaminoglycan that contains nine tandem leucine-rich repeats as well as N-terminal and C-terminal leucine-rich domains. It is a component of the extracellular matrix in cartilage, tendon, bony growth plates, skeletal and cardiac muscle, lung, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, cerebellum, and eye. It is cleaved by HTRA1/Omi during intervertebral disc degeneration. Chondroadherin functions as an adhesion protein by binding to Integrin a2/b1, Collagen II, and Collagen VI. It also promotes complement activation through binding to C1q and Complement Factor H. Mature human Chondroadherin shares 94% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat Chondroadherin.
