• Name: Anti-nNav 1.5 [4G8:1G7]
• Research fields: Cell biology;Neurobiology
• Clone: 4G8:1G7
• Tool sub type: Primary antibody
• Class: Monoclonal
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• Molecular weight: 180-200 kDa
• Strain: CD1
• Reactivity: Human
• Host: Mouse
• Application: FACS ; IHC ; IF ; WB
• Description: Voltage-gated sodium channesl (VGSCs) mediate regenerative cell membrane depolarization and conduction of electrical signalling in nerves and muscles. They have also been detected in lymphocytes, glia, and fibroblasts. VGSC proteins are comprised of a core alpha-subunit, together with one or more additional regulatoy beta-subunit. VCSC expression has been detected in a number of tumour cell lines and has been implicated in the metastatic behaviour of breast and prostate cancer cells. Na(v)1.5, the major cardiac voltage-gated Na(+) channel, plays a central role in the generation of the cardiac action potential and in the propagation of electrical impulses in the heart. Its importance for normal heart function has been recently exemplified by reports of numerous mutations found in the gene SCN5A which encodes Na(v)1.5.
