Human FSTL1 PicoKine ELISA Kit
Background: Follistatin-related protein 1, also called FSTL1 or FRP is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FSTL1 gene. FSTL1 gene is mapped to chromosome 3q13.33 based on an alignment of FSTL1 sequence with the genomic sequence (GRCh37). This gene encodes a protein with similarity to follistatin, an activin-binding protein. It contains an FS module, a follistatin-like sequence containing 10 conserved cysteine residues. This gene product is thought to be an autoantigen associated with rheumatoid arthritis. This gene may modulate the action of some growth factors on cell proliferation and differentiation. It was suggested that fibroblast-secreted FSTL1 acts on macrophages to increase TNF and IL1B production and IL6 activity.

Product Notes
The Human FSTL1 fstl1 (Catalog #AAA177300) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA177300 ELISA Kit recognizes Human FSTL1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "FSTL1, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
