The UniProt recommended name is Oncostatin M (OSM). This secreted glycoprotein signals through type I and type II OSM receptors to activate the JAK\/STAT, MAPK, and PI3K pathways, influencing diverse biological processes including immune regulation, bone metabolism, and liver regeneration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunctionally, OSM antibody identifies a 252-amino-acid cytokine produced primarily by activated T cells, macrophages, and monocytes. Upon secretion, OSM binds to receptor complexes composed of gp130 and OSMRbeta or LIFRbeta, initiating downstream phosphorylation of STAT3 and STAT5 transcription factors. These pathways promote expression of acute-phase proteins, matrix metalloproteinases, and cell differentiation genes. OSM plays critical roles in inflammation, angiogenesis, and wound repair by modulating fibroblast proliferation, endothelial activation, and extracellular matrix production.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe OSM gene is located on chromosome 22q12.2 and is broadly expressed in immune, endothelial, and stromal cells under inflammatory or injury conditions. Expression increases in response to IL1beta, TNFalpha, and lipopolysaccharides, linking OSM production to innate and adaptive immune responses. OSM participates in crosstalk between immune cells and tissue-resident fibroblasts, coordinating local inflammatory responses and tissue regeneration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePathologically, dysregulated OSM signaling contributes to chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and cancer. Elevated levels are associated with rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and multiple sclerosis. In cancer, OSM exhibits context-dependent effects, acting as both a tumor suppressor and promoter by influencing cell proliferation and metastasis. Research using OSM antibody supports studies in cytokine signaling, inflammatory disease, and tumor biology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOSM antibody is validated for ELISA, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry to detect cytokines in immune and stromal contexts. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStructurally, Oncostatin M contains a four-helix bundle cytokine fold stabilized by disulfide bridges and glycosylation sites essential for receptor binding and stability. The C-terminal domain interacts with gp130-containing receptor complexes to initiate signal transduction. This antibody enables detailed analysis of OSM's role in immune signaling, cytokine regulation, and tissue repair.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eELISA:\u003c\/strong\u003e support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=Osm - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=Osm - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=Osm - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/Osm - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=Osm+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 ug\/ml \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047320445293,"sku":"FY13253","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_32bc41be-88d8-4ef4-943a-f7e45b8a8906.jpg?v=1782237073","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/osm-antibody-oncostatin-m-bha17136155","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
