Background Information
Mast Cell Chymase, also named as CYH, CYM and CMA1, belongs to the peptidase S1 family and Granzyme subfamily. It is the major secreted protease of mast cells with suspected roles in vasoactive peptide generation, extracellular matrix degradation, and regulation of gland secretion. CMA1 maybe a target for cardiovascular disease therapies.

Reviews
What customers say
The single review for this product (rated 2/5) reports use in immunofluorescence on human brain cortex at a 1:100 dilution. The reviewer found that the antibody, intended to specifically mark mast cells, did not perform as expected on epileptic human FFPE cortex tissue. In addition to the intended mast cell signal, the reviewer observed non-specific puncta-like staining in neurons, suggesting limited specificity for the target application. Overall, the feedback indicates the antibody may not be ideal for this particular tissue and staining context.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Reyes (Verified Customer) (02-14-2025) | MCC (in green) does not seem to have worked specifically on the epileptic human FFPE cortex. It is supposed to mark only mast cells, but it seems to have some puncta-like staining of the neurons (in red) too.
