The UniProt recommended name is Bradykinin receptor B2 (BDKRB2). This receptor is constitutively expressed in many tissues and acts as a key regulator of vascular tone, fluid balance, and inflammatory signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunctionally, BDKRB2 antibody identifies a 364-amino-acid transmembrane receptor that activates intracellular signaling cascades upon bradykinin binding. The B2 receptor couples primarily to Gq and Gi proteins, triggering phospholipase C activation, intracellular calcium release, and nitric oxide production. This cascade promotes vasodilation, increases vascular permeability, and contributes to pain sensitization. BDKRB2 also regulates smooth muscle contraction and endothelial function through modulation of cyclic GMP pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BDKRB2 gene is located on chromosome 14q32.1 and encodes a receptor with seven transmembrane helices typical of GPCRs. Unlike the inducible B1 receptor, BDKRB2 is constitutively expressed under physiological conditions and mediates most acute responses to bradykinin. The receptor undergoes rapid desensitization and internalization upon agonist stimulation, allowing precise control of signal duration and intensity. BDKRB2 signaling is critical for cardiovascular regulation, renal function, and nociception.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the vascular system, BDKRB2 activation stimulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), leading to vasorelaxation and reduced blood pressure. In the kidney, it modulates sodium excretion and renin release, linking it to salt balance and blood pressure homeostasis. Dysregulation of BDKRB2 expression or signaling contributes to hypertension, hereditary angioedema, and chronic inflammatory conditions. Polymorphisms in BDKRB2 have been associated with altered cardiovascular responses and endurance performance in humans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond vascular biology, BDKRB2 participates in neuroinflammation, pain transmission, and tumor biology. Its activation sensitizes nociceptive neurons and facilitates cross-talk with cytokine and prostaglandin pathways. In cancer, BDKRB2 expression promotes angiogenesis and cell migration, suggesting a role in tumor progression. Conversely, BDKRB2-mediated nitric oxide release can induce apoptosis under oxidative conditions, reflecting its context-dependent activity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBDKRB2 antibody is used extensively in research on inflammation, vascular signaling, and neurobiology. It is suitable for immunoblotting, immunofluorescence, and receptor binding assays to detect expression patterns and subcellular localization. This antibody aids in studying GPCR signaling mechanisms and the pharmacological modulation of bradykinin pathways.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunohistochemistry:\u003c\/strong\u003e map target signal in tissue context and compare regions\/phenotypes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Monoclonal antibodies provide a defined epitope recognition profile that can support consistent comparisons across experiments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=BDKRB2 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=BDKRB2 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=BDKRB2 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/BDKRB2 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=BDKRB2+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, 0.4-0.5mg\/ml BSA \/ 100 ul","offer_id":53047307829613,"sku":"FY12987","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_f0e8a1c3-ab36-435b-b67d-079d06a29d8e.jpg?v=1772019378","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/bdkrb2-antibody-bradykinin-receptor-b2-bha17135889","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
