Decorin Antibody Microarray Validated detects Decorin, a small leucine-rich proteoglycan encoded by the DCN gene and widely distributed within the extracellular matrix of connective tissues. Clone DCN/3521 is a mouse monoclonal antibody validated by protein microarray analysis to support high specificity for Decorin in research applications focused on matrix biology and tissue remodeling.
Decorin antibody, also referred to as DCN antibody and small leucine-rich proteoglycan decorin antibody in the literature, recognizes a secreted extracellular matrix protein characterized by leucine-rich repeat domains and a single glycosaminoglycan chain. Decorin binds to fibrillar collagens, including type I and type II collagen, where it regulates collagen fibrillogenesis and fiber spacing. Through interactions with transforming growth factor beta and other growth factors, Decorin modulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix organization.
DCN is highly expressed in skin, tendon, ligament, cornea, and other collagen-rich tissues. In histologic analyses, Decorin typically demonstrates extracellular stromal staining distributed between collagen bundles and surrounding connective tissue frameworks. This pattern makes a Decorin Antibody Microarray Validated particularly useful for studies of fibrosis, wound healing, tumor stroma composition, and connective tissue development.
Altered Decorin expression has been implicated in fibrotic disorders, cancer progression, and abnormal scar formation, where dysregulated extracellular matrix composition influences cellular behavior. Decorin can also act as a tumor suppressive matrix component by sequestering growth factors and modulating receptor signaling pathways. A Decorin Antibody Microarray Validated such as clone DCN/3521 supports investigations into extracellular matrix structure, stromal-tumor interactions, and connective tissue pathology. This antibody targets DCN in research applications and is available from NSJ Bioreagents.
Optimal dilution of the microarray validated Decorin antibody should be determined by the researcher.
For immunostaining, pre-incubation with chondroitinase-SBC or testicular hyaluronidase may be required to expose the epitope.
A recombinant human Decorin partial protein (within amino acids 212-336) was used as the immunogen for the microarray validated Decorin antibody.
Aliquot the Decorin antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
