Description; Immunogen; The immunogen for anti-CCL7 antibody: synthetic peptide derected towards the N terminal of human CCL7; Application; Anti-CCL7 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 0.5 μg/ml. For immunohistochemistry of paraffin-embedded tissue sections, a concentration of 4-8 μg/ml is suitable.; Target description; CCL7, also known as MCP3, is a CC chemokine that binds monocytes and has been shown to regulate macrophage activity.; Physical form; Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.; Disclaimer; Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals.; Biochem/physiol Actions; CCL7 encodes monocyte chemotactic protein 3, a secreted chemokine which attracts macrophages during inflammation and metastasis. It is a member of the C-C subfamily of chemokines which are characterized by having two adjacent cysteine residues. The protein is an in vivo substrate of matrix metalloproteinase 2, an enzyme which degrades components of the extracellular matrix. This gene is part of a cluster of C-C chemokine family members on chromosome 17q.; Sequence; Synthetic peptide located within the following region: TSTTCCYRFINKKIPKQRLESYRRTTSSHCPREAVIFKTKLDKEICADPT
