Periostin/OSF-2 Antibody from R&D Systems, a Bio-Techne Brand

Yes, the Periostin/OSF-2 Antibody has been utilized in research related to central nervous system fibrosis, as evidenced by its application in the study by Dorrier et al. (2021), where it was used to stain tissue slices to investigate the role of Periostin in fibrotic scarring following immune cell infiltration in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis.

This antibody is reactive with both mouse and human Periostin. This dual reactivity allows for comparative studies between species, which can be particularly useful in translational research where findings in mouse models are applied to human conditions.

The antibody has been cited at a dilution of 1:1000 for immunohistochemistry applications, as noted in the study by Dorrier et al. (2021). This dilution should be optimized based on specific experimental conditions and tissue types.

The Periostin/OSF-2 Antibody has been shown to specifically detect mouse Periostin in direct ELISAs and Western blots, indicating its reliability for applications requiring precise identification of this protein.
