Catestatin (CST) Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

Chromogranin-A is a secreted protein known as a "prohormone" which is found in endocrine cells and neurons and may be released upon stimulation. It is thought to be involved in the formation of dense core granules, where it may be processed to form the bioactive peptide serpinin, which is thought to regulate the biogenesis of dense core granules in endocrine cells. Catestatin is a 21 amino acids fragment (352 to 372) from Chromogranin A. It's a bioactive peptide that can stimulate histamine release from mast cells and it's an inhibitor of catecholamines release. Catestatin has been shown to also have cardiovascular functions and antimicrobial activity.

Small volumes of anti-CST antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
