{"product_id":"biolegend-856302","title":"Biolegend, 856302, Purified anti-Transthyretin Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eTransthyretin (TTR) is a carrier protein capable of transporting thyroid hormones in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, and retinol (vitamin A) in the plasma. TTR can form aberrant, insoluble amyloid fibrils that primarily deposit in a patient's heart, peripheral nerves, or both. The wild-type protein is associated with senile systemic amyloidosis (SSA) and is typically diagnosed in men over 70-years-old. Single or double mutations in TTR are primarily associated with familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) or familial amyloid cardiopathy (FAC) which affects younger patients, often in their 30s. Clinical symptoms of TTR amyloidosis have historically been attributed to fibrils, but recent experimental evidence indicates that soluble TTR aggregates are also pathogenic.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: TTR-KLH peptide\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: WB - Quality testedIHC-P - Verified\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting.
