- Expression of NaV channels in rat cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of rat cerebellum using Anti-Pan NaV Antibody (#ASC-003). A. NaV channels (red) appear in Purkinje cell bodies (vertical arrows) and in cells of the molecular layer (Mol), (horizontal arrows). B. Staining of Parvalbumin (green) in the same brain section. C. Confocal merge of NaV channels and Parvalbumin demonstrates the location of NaV channels to the cell body of Purkinje neurons.

Voltage-gated sodium channels (NaV) are essential for the generation of action potentials and for cell excitability.1 NaV channels are activated in response to depolarization and selectively allow flow of Na+ ions. To date, nine NaV α subunits have been cloned and named NaV1.1-NaV1.9.4-5 The NaV channels are classified into two groups according to their sensitivity to tetrodotoxin (TTX): TTX-sensitive (NaV1.1, NaV1.2, NaV1.3, NaV1.4, NaV1.6 and NaV1.7) and TTX-resistant (NaV1.5, NaV1.8 and NaV1.9).2-3
Mammalian sodium channels are heterotrimers, composed of a central, pore-forming α subunit and two auxiliary β subunits. The expression of the α subunit isoform is developmentally regulated and tissue specific. Sodium channels in the adult central nervous system and heart contain β1 through β4 subunits, whereas sodium channels in adult skeletal muscle have only the β1 subunit.6,7
Application key:
Species reactivity key:
Alomone Labs is pleased to offer an antibody directed against an intracellular epitope of the rat NaV1.1 channel that is identical in all isoforms of NaV1 in all vertebrates, and highly homologous in molluscan and insect voltage-gated Na+ channels. Anti-Pan NaV Antibody (#ASC-003) can be used in western blot, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry applications.
