Research context & evidence

About PF4

Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.

Biology

Biological function

PF4 (CXCL4) is a platelet-released chemokine involved in chemotactic and inflammatory responses and in regulation of haematopoietic and vascular cell behaviour. It also binds heparin and can modulate anticoagulant activity.

Experimental context

Research context

PF4 is widely studied in platelet biology, thrombosis and coagulation research, chemokine signalling, inflammation and haematopoietic models. Reagent selection should consider species, sample type, assay format, application and supporting validation.
