Glypican-4 is a cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan that contains a core protein anchored to the cytoplasmic membrane via a GPI anchor. Glypicans function as coreceptors for a variety of growth factors including Wnt, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), fibroblast growth factors, and Hedgehog. In particular, Glypican-4 enhances the Wnt3a dependent β-catenin pathway and the Wnt5a-dependent non-canonical Wnt signaling. Glypican-4 plays a role in the control of cell division and growth regulation and is upregulated in pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer where it is involved in promoting chemoresistance. Glypican-4 also regulates glutamatergic synapse formation and function in the developing brain.

- Application
-
ICC - Quality tested
FC, Block - Verified - Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunocytochemistry. For immunocytochemistry, a concentration of 5.0 μg/mL is recommended. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 1.0 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. For blocking Glypican-4 mediated Wnt signaling in vitro, a concentration range of 0.1 – 5.0 μg/mL is suggested.
- Application Notes
-
This antibody blocks Glypican-4 mediated Wnt3a signaling in vitro at concentrations from 0.1 - 5.0 µg/mL.

Related FAQs
- Do you guarantee that your antibodies are totally pathogen free?
-
BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house aside from the GoInVivo™ product line. However, upon request, this can be tested on a custom basis with an outside, independent laboratory.
- Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody by functional assay?
-
No, BioLegend does not test Ultra-LEAF™ antibodies by functional assays unless otherwise indicated. Due to the possible complexities and variations of uses of biofunctional antibodies in different assays and because of the large product portfolio, BioLegend does not currently perform functional assays as a routine QC for the antibodies. However, we do provide references in which the antibodies were used for functional assays and we do perform QC to verify the specificity and quality of the antibody based on our strict specification criteria.
- Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for potential pathogens?
-
No, BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house unless otherwise indicated. However, we can recommend an outside vendor to perform this testing as needed.
- Have you tested this Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for in vivo or in vitro applications?
-
We don't test our antibodies for in vivo or in vitro applications unless otherwise indicated. Depending on the product, the TDS may describe literature supporting usage of a particular product for bioassay. It may be best to further consult the literature to find clone specific information.
