Background

Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF) is a 38kDa, cysteine-rich, secreted peptide. CTGF promotes endothelial cell growth, migration, adhesion and survival. and is thus implicated in endothelial cell function and angiogenesis. CTGF is implicated in are embryogenesis, wound healing and regulation of extracellular matrix production, and is required for normal skeletal growth.

CTGF antibodies are useful tools for angiogenesis and cell structure research, and for studies on certian types of cancer.

FAQs for CTGF/CCN2 Recombinant Protein (NBP2-52000). (Showing 1 - 1 of 1 FAQ).

1. We are looking for a pair of mouse CTGF antibody for ELISA, we prefer no azide and/or glycerol, and in carrier free form (no EDTA, no Tris, no BSA). For the validation, we need approximately 100ug. If it works, we'll order more later.
   • Unfortunately we do not carry any CTGF antibodies that suit your specifications. We do carry AbSelect antibody purification kits that will remove BSA, Tris and azide from antibody formulations which may be an option for you.
