General description

Sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 10 (SCN10A) codes for Nav1.8 sodium channels. It is expressed in nociceptive neurons. This gene is mapped to human chromosome 3p22.2.

Immunogen

peptide (C)EDEVAAKEGNSPGPQ corresponding to residues 1943-1957 of rat Nav1.8. This sequence has 14/15 residues identical in mouse and 7/15 residues identical in human.

Application

Anti-Sodium Channel NaV1.8 antibody has been used in immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 10 (SCN10A) plays a major role in human pain. It is involved in the pathophysiology of cerebellar deficits in MS (multiple sclerosis).

Target description

Anti-Sodium Channel NaV1.8 specifically recognizes NaV1.8. Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are present in most excitable cells. They play a crucial role in regulating the cell excitability, being primarily responsible for the

Physical form

Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, with 1% bovine serum albumin, and 0.05 % sodium azide.
