Research context & evidence
Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.
GFAP is a class III intermediate-filament protein expressed prominently in astrocytes and other glial populations. It contributes to cytoskeletal organisation, maintenance of cell structure and glial responses to injury or stress.
GFAP is widely studied in astrocyte and glial biology, neurodevelopment, neuroinflammation, reactive gliosis and nervous-system injury models. Reagent selection should consider species, tissue or cell state, sample type, assay format, application and supporting validation.
