PLA2G4A Antibodies
AND PLA2G4A ELISA kits, PLA2G4A Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect PLA2G4A, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with PLA2G4A in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop PLA2G4A antibodies...

PLA2G4A Overview
Facts about Cytosolic phospholipase A2.
Cytosolic phospholipase A2 (PLA2G4A)
Selectively hydrolyzes arachidonyl phospholipids in the sn-2 place releasing arachidonic acid. Together with its lysophospholipid action, it is implicated in the initiation of the inflammatory reaction.
