Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes CCN family member 3 (gene CCN3) in rat samples and is validated for flow cytometry, ICC/IF, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 39.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 47 kDa.
CCN3, also called NOV (nephroblastoma overexpressed), is a matricellular protein of the CCN family. It influences cell proliferation, adhesion, migration and differentiation by binding integrins and receptors such as NOTCH1, and it is studied in hematopoietic stem cell regulation, bone and cartilage biology, and tumor growth.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Human, Rat) |

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 50 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:10000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human intestinal cancer tissue, human lung cancer tissue, human mammary cancer tissue, rat kidney tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in citrate buffer (pH 6).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): A431 cells.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): U87 cells.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human NOV/CCN3. It differs from the mouse sequence at seven residues and from the rat sequence at four residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with rat. UniProt describes CCN family member 3 as secreted and also located in the cytoplasm and cell junction. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in endothelial cells (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
