General description

Protein A purified rabbit polyclonal antibody. Recognizes v-fos and ~50-62 kDa c-fos proteins.
Recognizes the ~50-62 kDa c-Fos protein in HepG2, NIH3T3, and MCF-7 cells.
The proto-oncogene fos has been implicated in cell growth, differentiation and development. Fos is induced by a large number of stimuli including mitogens, differentiation-specific agents, pharmacological agents, etc. Induction of the 62,000 dalton fos protein is rapid but transient. The fos protein is associated with a 39,000 dalton protein which has been identified as the protein product of the jun proto-oncogene (c-jun). The fos/jun protein complex binds specifically to a sequence element in DNA referred to as the AP-1 binding site.
This Anti-c-Fos (Ab-2) (4-17) Rabbit pAb is validated for use in Frozen sections, Immunoblotting, IF, IP, Paraffin sections, for the detection of c-Fos (Ab-2) (4-17).

One underexploited property of anesthetics is their ability to probe neuronal regulation of arousal. At appropriate doses, anesthetics reversibly obtund conscious perception. However, individual anesthetic agents may accomplish this by altering the function of distinct neuronal populations. Previously the authors

While the rewarding effects of alcohol contribute significantly to its addictive potential, it is becoming increasingly appreciated that alcohol's aversive properties also play an important role in the propensity to drink. Despite this, the neurobiological mechanism for alcohol's aversive actions

Proper colon function requires signals from extrinsic primary afferent neurons (ExPANs) located in spinal ganglia. Most ExPANs express the vanilloid receptor TRPV1, and a dense plexus of TRPV1-positive fibers is found around myenteric neurons. Capsaicin, a TRPV1 agonist, can initiate
