The NPAS4 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC022467) is an essential tool for researchers studying the NPAS4 protein, a transcription factor involved in neuronal activity and brain development. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in Western blot assays. By specifically binding to NPAS4, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis of the protein in various cell types, making it an ideal choice for neuroscience and neurodevelopment research.NPAS4, also known as neuronal PAS domain protein 4, plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression in response to neuronal activity, impacting synaptic plasticity and neuronal survival.
Its involvement in neuronal function and development makes it a key target for investigating neurological disorders, brain injuries, and cognitive function. Understanding the functions of NPAS4 is vital for developing therapeutic strategies to manipulate neuronal activity and promote brain health in various neurological conditions.
