Anti-Collagen antibodies have been used for indirect trapping ELISA for quantitation of antigen in serum using a standard curve, for immunoprecipitation and for native PAGE and western blotting for highly sensitive qualitative analysis. Greatly diminished reactivity and selectivity of these antibodies will result if denaturing and reducing conditions are used for in immunoblotting. Use in ICC/IF reported in scientific literature (PMID 24378017). Use in FLOW cytometry reported in scientific literature ( PMID 25774777). Collagen VI alpha 1 antibody validated for IHC-F from a verified customer review.
This antibody reacts with most mammalian Type VI collagens and has negligible cross-reactivity with Type I, II, III, IV and V collagens. Non-specific cross reactivity of anti-collagen antibodies with other human serum proteins or non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins is negligible.

Background
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.
