Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets tenascin-R (gene TNR) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 149.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 150 kDa.
Tenascin-R (TNR) is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein made mainly by oligodendrocytes and some neurons in the central nervous system. It organizes the brain matrix, including perineuronal nets, and can either support adhesion or repel and inhibit neurite growth depending on context, so it is studied in neural development, synaptic plasticity and nerve regeneration.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells (Human) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat brain tissue, mouse brain tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 8% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 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 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human glioma tissue, mouse brain tissue, rat brain 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 EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): SH-SY5Y cells.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the N-terminal region of mouse TNR. The peptide sequence is conserved in rat. It differs from the human sequence at one residue.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Brain specific. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
