- Extra Details:
- HTR1A (5-HYDROXYTRYPTAMINE RECEPTOR 1, also called SEROTONIN 5-HT-1A RECEPTOR or BETA-2-ADRENERGIC RECEPTOR-LIKE PROTEIN G-21, is a subtype of 5-HT receptor that binds the endogenous neurotransmitter serotonin. It is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that is coupled to Gi/Go and mediates inhibitory neurotransmission. HTR1A denotes the human gene encoding for the receptor.The HTR1A gene is located at 5q12.3. The decreases in 5-HT-1A receptor densities correlated with decreased glucose utilization as measured by PET scan. Activation of 5-HT-1A receptors has been demonstrated to impair cognition, learning, and memory by inhibiting the release of glutamate and acetylcholine in various areas of the brain. 5-HT-1A receptors in the dorsal raphe nucleus are colocalized with neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptors and have been shown to inhibit the release of substance P, their endogenous ligand. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 0.1-0.5ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 0.5-1ug/ml. Requires HIER using 10mM citrate buffer pH 6.0 for 20 minutes prior to staining the formalin/paraffin sections Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
