FOSB is a leucine zipper protein that functions as a transcriptional regulator. Studies in mice have reported that FOSB is involved in cocaine-induced behavioral responses. Rabbit Anti-FOSB antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, bovine, and canine FOSB.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human FOSB
Application
Rabbit Anti-FOSB antibody can be used for IHC (4-8μg/ml) and western blot (1.25μg/ml) applications.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The Fos gene family consists of 4 members: FOS, FOSB, FOSL1, and FOSL2. They are leucine zipper proteins that can dimerize with proteins of the JUN family, thereby forming the transcription factor complex AP-1. As such, the FOS proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation.
Sequence
Synthetic peptide located within the following region: DLPGSAPAKEDGFSWLLPPPPPPPLPFQTSQDAPPNLTASLFTHSEVQVL
Physical form
Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Chronic drug exposure and drug withdrawal induce expressive neuronal plasticity which could be considered as both functional and pathological responses. It is well established that neuronal plasticity in the limbic system plays a pivotal role in relapse as well as
The efficiency of most of the new antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) on clinical trials still falls short the success reported in pre-clinical studies, possibly because the validity of the animal models is insufficient to fully represent the human pathology. To improve

Chronic exposure to cocaine leads to prominent, long-lasting changes in behavior that characterize a state of addiction. The striatum, including the nucleus accumbens and caudoputamen, is an important substrate for these actions. We previously have shown that long-lasting Fos-related proteins
Social isolation gained discussion momentum due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Whereas many studies address the effects of long-term social isolation in post-weaning and adolescence and for periods ranging from 4 to 12 weeks, little is known about the repercussions of
FosB, one of the members of the Fos family, is rapidly induced in many cell types upon stimulation and has a stimulatory effect on the proliferation of cultured cells. To understand the tissue distribution of FosB, we have studied its
