General description

Glial fibrillary acidic protein is a class-III intermediate filament. GFAP is the main constituent of intermediate filaments in astrocytes and serves as a cell specific marker that distinguishes differentiated astrocytes from other glial cells during the development of the central nervous system.

Immunogen

Purified glial filament protein (Debus, E., et al. (1983) Differentiation. 25:193-203.)

Application

Anti-GFAP Antibody, Biotin Conjugate detects level of GFAP & has been published & validated for use in IH.

The apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and directly influences tauopathy and tau-mediated neurodegeneration. ApoE4 has strong deleterious effects on both parameters. In the brain, apoE is produced and secreted primarily by astrocytes
