Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 4 (gene TRPV4) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and ELISA.
TRPV4 is a calcium-permeable cation channel that senses osmotic and mechanical changes, as well as warmth and certain chemical activators. It is expressed in many tissues, including endothelium, kidney, skin and cartilage, where it supports barrier formation and cell volume and pressure sensing. Variants in TRPV4 are well known in inherited skeletal dysplasias and neuropathies.

Immunogen
Recombinant human TRPV4 fragment (Arg64–Asp408), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 97.4%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 4 in the cell membrane, apical cell membrane, cell junction and cell projection. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Found in the synoviocytes from patients with (RA) and without (CTR) rheumatoid arthritis (at protein level).
