General description

Protein A purified rabbit polyclonal antibody. Recognizes v-fos and ~50-62 kDa c-fos proteins.
Recognizes the ~50-62 kDa c-Fos protein in HepG2, NIH3T3, and MCF-7 cells.
The proto-oncogene fos has been implicated in cell growth, differentiation and development. Fos is induced by a large number of stimuli including mitogens, differentiation-specific agents, pharmacological agents, etc. Induction of the 62,000 dalton fos protein is rapid but transient. The fos protein is associated with a 39,000 dalton protein which has been identified as the protein product of the jun proto-oncogene (c-jun). The fos/jun protein complex binds specifically to a sequence element in DNA referred to as the AP-1 binding site.
This Anti-c-Fos (Ab-2) (4-17) Rabbit pAb is validated for use in Frozen sections, Immunoblotting, IF, IP, Paraffin sections, for the detection of c-Fos (Ab-2) (4-17).

Reports show that stressful events before injury exacerbates post-injury pain. The mechanism underlying stress-induced heightened thermal pain is unclear. Here, we examined the effects of chronic intermittent stress (CIS) on nociceptive behaviors and brain-derived nerve growth factor (BDNF) system in
