Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

The protein FSTL3 also known as Follistatin-like 3 has a molecular mass of approximately 26 kDa. Mechanically FSTL3 acts by binding and neutralizing specific members of the TGF-beta superfamily influencing cellular processes like growth differentiation and apoptosis. It is mostly expressed in tissues such as the placenta pancreas and muscle where it plays a role in various developmental and physiological events.
Biological function summary

FSTL3 serves an important function in regulating cellular dynamics by modulating activity of ligands in the TGF-beta signaling pathway. It forms a complex with activins and other growth factors to inhibit their signaling capabilities. This interaction is key in processes like managing fetal development ensuring proper organogenesis and maintaining metabolic activities.

Pathways

Extensive research places FSTL3 within the TGF-beta signaling pathway and the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system. These pathways are critical for managing cellular growth and metabolism. FSTL3 interacts with proteins such as activins and inhibins which share roles in regulating cell proliferation and differentiation linking FSTL3 directly to these essential cellular pathways.

FSTL3 links to pathologies like type 2 diabetes and muscle wasting. FSTL3 influences insulin signaling therefore its dysregulation can contribute to insulin resistance a hallmark of type 2 diabetes. It also associates with muscle protein wasting through its interaction with activin suggesting a potential therapeutic target in conditions like cachexia.

Target data

Isoform 1 or the secreted form is a binding and antagonizing protein for members of the TGF-beta family, such as activin, BMP2 and MSTN. Inhibits activin A-, activin B-, BMP2- and MSDT-induced cellular signaling; more effective on activin A than on activin B. Involved in bone formation; inhibits osteoclast differentiation. Involved in hematopoiesis; involved in differentiation of hemopoietic progenitor cells, increases hematopoietic cell adhesion to fibronectin and seems to contribute to the adhesion of hematopoietic precursor cells to the bone marrow stroma. Isoform 2 or the nuclear form is probably involved in transcriptional regulation via interaction with MLLT10.
