Polyclonal GFAP Antibody, Rabbit IgG

• Background:

  The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the main intermediate filament protein in mature astrocytes, but also an important component of the cytoskeleton in astrocytes during development. GFAP has been shown to be involved in astrocyte functions, which are important during regeneration, synaptic plasticity and reactive gliosis. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development.
