{"product_id":"biolegend-348920","title":"Biolegend, 348920, Brilliant Violet 421™ anti-human Galectin-9 Antibody, 100tests","description":"\u003cp\u003eGalectin-9 is a mammalian lectin with a molecular weight around 50 kD. It is a member of the β-galactoside-binding family. With two conserved carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs), galectin-9 binds small β-galactosides as well as complex glycoconjugates.  HAVCR2\/TIM3 has been reported as one of its ligands. Galectin-9 may be retained intracellularly or transported to the cell surface where it can be cleaved to generate a soluble form. Galectin-9 is expressed by lymphocytes, dendritic cells, granulocytes, eosinophils, astrocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and thymus epithelial cells. It can be induced by cytokines in various cell types and is involved in cell aggregation, adhesion, chemotaxis, and apoptosis; galectin-9 induces regulatory T cells and suppresses Th1 and Th17 responses.\u003cbr\u003e\n100tests\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nReported Reactivity: African Green, Baboon, Cynomolgus\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Recombinant peptide from C-terminus of Galectin-9\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide and BSA (origin USA).\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Brilliant Violet 421™ under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: Lot-specific (to obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.)\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light.
