Alternate Names for Collagen IV Antibody - Azide and BSA Free
Collagen IV is a major constituent of the basement membranes along with laminins, proteoglycans and enactins. It is a multimeric protein composed of 3 alpha subunits. These subunits are encoded by 6 different genes, alpha 1 through alpha 6, each of which can form a triple helix structure with 2 other subunits to form type IV collagen. It can form insoluble fibers with high tensile strength. Collagen IV is useful in detecting the loss of parts of basement membranes in carcinomas. This antibody is well suited to detect extracellular matrix proteins in normal as well as disease state tissues. Disruption of tissue organization is the hallmark of neoplasia. Malignant lesions can be distinguished from benign by examining the breakdown of basement membranes and loss of 3-dimensional architecture. Malignant cells are presumed to use matrix metalloproteases to degrade barriers created by the extracellular matrix which then allows metastasis to occur. Collagenases, stomelysins and gelatinases can collectively degrade all of the various components of the extracellular matrix, including fibrillar and non-fibrillar collagens and basement membrane glycoproteins.
Limitations
This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
Mouse brain tissue (12um thickness) was incubated overnight with NBP1-26549 (1:400) in PBS 1x at 4C. The day after, the slide was washed 3 x PBS 1x and then incubated with secondary anti-goat antibody (Alex Fluor 568-conjugated), 1:1000 for 2 hours at r.t. After counterstaining with DAPI, image was acquired with confocal microscopy. Left panel: NBP1-26549 signal, identifying Collagen IV in extracellular basement membrane of brain endothelial cells. Right panel: counterstained image with DAPI.
