Background Chromogranin A (CHGA) is a member of the neuroendocrine secretory protein family located in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells. CHGA is a precursor to three biologically active peptides: vasostatin, pancreastatin, and parastatin. These peptides function as autocrine or paracrine negative modulators of the neuroendocrine system. Other peptides including chromostatin, betagranin, WE-14 and GE-25 are also derived from full-length CHGA. CHGA has numerous biological activities including antifungal and antimicrobial action, modulation of cell adhesion, and inhibition of parathyroid hormone secretion.

Handling
Storage Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store at or below -20°C for longer periods of time. Addition of a carrier protein (such as 0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage.
Dilution Instructions Dilute in PBS or medium that is identical to that used in the assay system.
