- Expression of TRPC3 in rat cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of TRPC3 in rat cerebellum using Anti-TRPC3 Antibody (#ACC-016). A. TRPC3 (green) appears in Purkinje cells (arrows) including both soma and dendrites and as well as in the molecular layer neuropil (asterisk). Staining of the same section with mouse anti-parvalbumin (red) reveals that TRPC3 is not expressed in molecular layer interneurons. B. Pre-incubating Anti-TRPC3 with the TRPC3 peptide antigen blocks staining. DAPI is used as the counterstain (blue).

A. TRPC6 staining (green) appears in molecular layer and in Purkinje cells. B. In the same section, staining of TRPC3 (red) appears as well in both molecular layer and Purkinje cells. C. Merge images of A and B indicates extensive co-localization. DAPI is used as the counterstain (blue).

The Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) superfamily is one of the largest ion channel families and consists of diverse groups of proteins. In mammals, about 28 genes encode the TRP ion channel subunits. The mammalian TRP superfamily comprises six subfamilies known as the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPML (mucolipins), TRPP (polycystin) and the TRPA (ANKTM1) ion channels.1-4
The TRPC subfamily consists of seven proteins named TRPC1 to 7 which can be further divided into four subgroups based on their sequence homology and functional similarities:
1. TRPC1
2. TRPC4 and TRPC5
3. TRPC3, TRPC6, TRPC7
4. TRPC2.2,5
They are highly expressed in the central nervous system and to a lesser extent in peripheral tissues.
TRPC3, TRPC6 and TRPC7 form non-selective cationic channels that are activated by the stimulation of GPCRs.
Different modes of activation, DAG and SOC, were described for the TRPC3 channel by different investigators working with heterologous expression systems.6,7

Anti-TRPC3 Antibody (#ACC-016) is a highly specific antibody directed against an epitope of the mouse protein. The antibody can be used in western blot, immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and indirect flow cytometry applications. It has been designed to recognize TRPC3 from mouse, rat, and human samples.
Knockout validation of Anti-TRPC3 Antibody in mouse cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of mouse cerebellum sections using Anti-TRPC3 Antibody (#ACC-016). TRPC3 staining (green) is detected in neurons and partially overlaps with the neuronal marker MAP-2 (red). No staining for TRPC3 is observed in TRPC3-/- mice (lower panels).Adapted from Feng, S. et al. (2013) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
