Anti-PDGF-C antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the PDGF-C antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the PDGFC gene, which encodes platelet derived growth factor C. This protein is known to function in organ morphogenesis and bone development, among other biological roles. The human version of PDGF-C has a canonical amino acid length of 345 residues and a protein mass of 39 kilodaltons, although 4 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, and is secreted of cells and notably expressed in the smooth muscle, kidney, endometrium, colon, and cervix. Other names for this target antigen include VEGF-E, secretory growth factor-like protein, and spinal cord-derived growth factor. ELISA is the most common application for the PDGF-C antibodies listed below. Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
