Gene Information

General description

Rabbit polyclonal antibody supplied as lyophilized, undiluted serum. Recognizes the ~44-45 kDa opioid µ receptor protein.
Recognizes the ~44-45 kDa opiod μ receptor in caudate putamen and the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.
This Anti-Opioid µ Receptor (384-398) Rabbit pAb is validated for use in Frozen Sections, Immunoblotting, IF, IP for the detection of Opioid µ Receptor (384-398).

Immunogen

Rat
a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 384-398 of rat opioid µ receptor

Application

Frozen Sections (1:500-1:1000, Cy3 technique; 1:3000-1:6000, HRP)

Immunoblotting (1:2000-1:2500; see application references)

Immunofluorescence (1:100-1:200)

Immunoprecipitation (see comments)

Warning

Toxicity: Highly Toxic (H)

Physical form

Undiluted serum.

Reconstitution

Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with 100 µl sterile distilled H₂O. Resulting reconstituted solution contains ≤0.1% sodium azide. Be careful to reconstitute the entire contents of the vial; during shipment and handling portions of the lyophilized pellet may have become dislodged and may not be in the bottom of the vial. Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C).

Analysis Note

Positive Control
Rat caudate putamen or spinal cord (dorsal horn)

Other Notes

The specificity was determined by immunolabeling of transfected cells, immunoblotting analysis, and immunoisolation studies. Antibody specificity was examined in the rat caudate putamen and dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Staining is completely eliminated by pre-treatment of antibody with immunogen peptide at a concentration of 10 µg/ml. This antibody has also been reported to work for immunopercipitation. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

The peptides dynorphin and enkephalin modulate many physiological processes, such as motor activity and the control of mood and motivation. Their expression in the caudate putamen (CPu) is regulated by dopamine and opioid receptors. The current work was designed to

Previous studies established that Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-N-Me-Phe-Gly-ol (DAMGO) and (2S,4aR,6aR,7R,9S,10aS,10bR)-9-(Benzoyloxy)-2-(3-furanyl)dodecahydro-6a,10b-dimethyl-4,10-dioxo-2H-naphtho-[2,1-c]pyran-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester (herkinorin) are fully efficacious mu-agonists. Herkinorin (HERK), unlike DAMGO, does not recruit beta-arrestin and promote mu-receptor internalization, even in cells that over express beta-arrestin. We hypothesized that chronic HERK
