Background Information

CSPG4, also named as HMW-MAA, MCSP, MCSPG, MEL-CSPG, MSK16 and NG2, is a proteoglycan playing a role in cell proliferation and migration which stimulates endothelial cells motility during microvascular morphogenesis. CSPG4 may inhibit neurite outgrowth and growth cone collapse during axon regeneration. It is cell surface receptor for collagen alpha 2(VI) which may confer cells ability to migrate on that substrate. CSPG4 may regulate MPP16-dependent degradation and invasion of type I collagen participating in melanoma cells invasion properties. It modulates the plasminogen system by enhancing plasminogen activation and inhibiting angiostatin. CSPG4 functions as a signal transducing protein by binding through its cytoplasmic C-terminus scaffolding and signaling proteins. It promotes retraction fiber formation and cell polarization through Rho GTPase activation and stimulates alpha-4, beta-1 integrin-mediated adhesion and spreading by recruiting and activating a signaling cascade through CDC42, ACK1 and BCAR1. CSPG4 activates FAK and ERK1/ERK2 signaling cascades. The antibody is specific to CSPG4.

Kinan (Verified Customer) (04-22-2022)

No specific staining on human lung and skin sections. Background signal was very high also. HIER pH6 in citrate buffer.

  • Applications: Immunohistochemistry
  • Primary Antibody Dilution: 1:100 and 1:500
  • Cell Tissue Type: Human lung & skin

Nadine (Verified Customer) (01-31-2019)

We had high background and no specific staining of IHC-paraffin slides of human brain cortex. We tried both pH6 and pH9 antigen retrieval solutions. We have not tested other applications.
