- Cystatin C is a 14kD member of the Cystatin superfamily of cysteine protease inhibitors (1). Most cell types secrete Cystatin C (1). Cystatin C inhibits cathepsins, and thereby may function as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting cathepsin mediated tumor cell invasion (2). In addition, this tumor suppressor function can also be attributed to Cystatin C's ability to antagonize TGF-beta 1 signaling (2,3). Cystatin C may also modulate antigen presentation through its ability to inhibit cathepsins (4). Cystatin C is also a biomarker for kidney dysfunction (5). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Immunofluorescence/Immunocytochemistry and ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:500-1:2000, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in TBS, 5% milk, 0.1% Tween 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. Immunohistochemistry: 1:50-1:200 Immunofluorescence (IF-IC): 1:100-1:500 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
