TSG-6 Antibody (A38.1.20) is a rat monoclonal IgG2a antibody designed to detect TSG-6, also known as TNF-stimulated gene 6 or tumor necrosis factor-inducible gene 6 protein, across mouse, rat, and human species. TSG-6 is a crucial glycoprotein involved in the modulation of inflammation and extracellular matrix stability, playing a significant role in processes such as wound healing and the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. Anti-TSG-6 antibody (A38.1.20) targets an epitope raised against a CTLL-2 cell line expressing a CD44 chimera of human origin, ensuring robust binding and detection. TSG-6 functions by interacting with hyaluronan and forming stable complexes with components of the inter-α-inhibitor (IαI), thereby potentiating the inhibition of protease activity and regulating the protease network to suppress inflammatory responses. The TSG-6 gene is actively transcribed in normal fibroblasts and is upregulated by pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNFα and IL-1, highlighting its importance in immune responses and tissue remodeling. TSG-6 monoclonal antibody (A38.1.20) is versatile in its applications, suitable for western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and flow cytometry (FCM). Available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® variants, TSG-6 (A38.1.20) antibody provides flexibility for diverse experimental needs. The high homology of TSG-6 to the adhesion receptor CD44, especially in the hyaluronic acid-binding domain, underscores its relevance in studying cell adhesion and migration. Anti-TSG-6 antibody (A38.1.20) enables researchers to effectively investigate the intricate mechanisms of inflammation and extracellular matrix interactions, making this tool essential for advancing biomedical research.

Hi there, I am using the antibody sc-65886 (A38.1.20) for my binding assays to TSG-6 and I was wondering whether you are aware of the antibody epitope on TSG-6. I know that it binds the Link domain of TSG-6 but do you know the epitope sequence. Thank you

Asked by: Nikos
Thank you for your question. No epitope mapping has been performed for this antibody as of yet, so its binding site on the target protein is not known.
