Description
SLC18A1 Antibody (PACO12245)
The SLC18A1 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO12245) is a valuable tool for researchers studying SLC18A1, a protein involved in the transport of neurotransmitters in the nervous system. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot analyses. By binding to the SLC18A1 protein, this antibody enables the detection and analysis of SLC18A1 in various cell types, making it ideal for neuroscience and pharmacology research.SLC18A1, also known as vesicular monoamine transporter 1 (VMAT1), plays a crucial role in the storage and release of monoamine neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin.
Dysregulation of SLC18A1 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Therefore, studying the function of SLC18A1 using this antibody may provide valuable insights into the pathophysiology of these conditions and aid in the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting neurotransmitter transport mechanisms.

NCBI Summary: | The vesicular monoamine transporter acts to accumulate cytosolic monoamines into vesicles, using the proton gradient maintained across the vesicular membrane. Its proper function is essential to the correct activity of the monoaminergic systems that have been implicated in several human neuropsychiatric disorders. The transporter is a site of action of important drugs, including reserpine and tetrabenazine (Peter et al., 1993 [PubMed 7905859]). See also SLC18A2 (MIM 193001).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008] |
