Description
Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) is an intermediate filament protein predominantly expressed in astrocytes, a type of glial cell in the central nervous system. GFAP plays a crucial role in maintaining astrocyte structural integrity and supporting neuronal functions. Elevated GFAP levels are associated with neurodegenerative diseases, traumatic brain injuries, and gliomas, making it a key biomarker in neurological research and diagnostics. Anti-GFAP antibodies are widely used in immunohistochemistry, Western blot, and immunofluorescence to detect and study astrocyte activation, brain pathology, and glial cell function.
