Biological background
BSG antibody is widely used in immunology, oncology, and infectious disease research. In cancer, basigin promotes tumor invasion and metastasis by inducing matrix metalloproteinase activity. It also regulates metabolic processes by facilitating lactate transport through interactions with monocarboxylate transporters. By detecting basigin, researchers can study how CD147 contributes to the tumor microenvironment and cellular metabolism.
The antibody is suitable for western blotting, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. In western blot assays, BSG antibody detects protein bands corresponding to basigin in multiple tissues. Flow cytometry enables quantitative assessment of CD147 expression on immune and tumor cells. Immunohistochemistry reveals tissue specific patterns, while immunofluorescence highlights subcellular localization at plasma membranes.
Basigin also plays roles in immunity and infectious disease. It regulates leukocyte activation, T cell function, and pathogen interactions. Basigin has been identified as a receptor for certain parasites and viruses, linking it to infectious disease research. By using BSG antibody, scientists can evaluate the role of CD147 in host pathogen interactions and immune regulation.

Research relevance and current trends
- Connecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).
- Considering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.
- Comparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.
- Immunofluorescence: visualize subcellular distribution and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
- Immunohistochemistry: map target signal in tissue context and compare regions/phenotypes.
Interpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Signal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.
- Species differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.
Antibody notes: Monoclonal antibodies provide a defined epitope recognition profile that can support consistent comparisons across experiments.
