Description | Anti-P2RX7 antibody was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. P2RX7 antibody is human, mouse, and rat reactive. Multiple isoforms of P2RX7 are known to exist. The purinergic receptor P2X ligand-gated ion channel 7 (P2RX7) belongs to the family of purinoceptors for ATP (1). This receptor functions as a ligand-gated ion channel and is responsible for ATP-dependent lysis of macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules (1,2). Activation of this nuclear receptor by ATP in the cytoplasm may be a mechanism by which cellular activity can be coupled to changes in gene expression (2). Recent studies have suggested that P2RX7 may play a key role in immune-mediated diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (3) as well as neuropsychiatric disorders (4). |
Immunogen | Anti-P2RX7 antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a 17 amino acid peptide near the C-terminus of human P2RX7. |
