Anti-Alpha-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (alpha-CGRP) Antibody (5)
Our mouse Alpha-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (Alpha-CGRP) monoclonal antibody from Antibodies Incorporated is produced in-house from clone 5. It detects human and rat Alpha-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (Alpha-CGRP) and is Protein A or Protein G purified. Works in ELISA, IHC.
Immunohistochemistry detection of Alpha-calcitonin gene-related peptide (α-CGRP) in rat tissue tissue using Anti-Alpha-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (alpha-CGRP) Antibody (Cat. ABS 026-05-010). Tissue was mounted and pariffin fixed. Heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using citrate buffer, heated, and then blocked. After washing, the primary antibody (Cat. ABS 026-05-010) was incubated with the sample.

Product Details
Alpha-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (Alpha-CGRP)
Calcitonin gene-related peptide is a 37 amino acid vasoactive neuropeptide (MW 3789) widely expressed throughout the central and peripheral nervous system. CGRP has potent vasodilatory effects probably serving as a regulator of regional blood flow, In addition to a variety of other cellular effects.

ABS 026-05 binds free α-CGRP in solution. Based on inhibition ELISA, the affinity of ABS 026-05 is at least 24 times higher than that of ABS 026-04. ABS 026-05 (as capture antibody) forms a sandwich ELISA pair with ABS 026-04 (as biotinylated detection antibody) for measuring human a-CGRP, giving a detection limit of 0.13 nmol/L in an unoptimized buffer assay. ABS 026-05 works well in IHC on paraffin embedded tissue.
Unconjugated
ABS 026-05 binds human α-CGRP. Based on inhibition ELISA, ABS 026-05 shows full cross-reactivity with rat α-CGRP and about 50% cross-reactivity with human b-CGRP. There is no cross-reaction with human amylin. The epitope lies within residues 1-18 of human α-CGRP.
These antibodies are to be used as research laboratory reagents and are not for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.
