Macroglobulin α-2 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-Macroglobulin α-2 Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

Alpha-2-macroglobulin is a protease inhibitor and cytokine transporter. It inhibits many proteases, including trypsin, thrombin and collagenase. A2M is implicated in Alzheimer disease (AD) due to its ability to mediate the clearance and degradation of A-beta, the major component of beta-amyloid deposits.
