General description
Glutamate decarboxylase 2/Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (UniProt: Q05329/Q99259; also known as 65 kDa/67kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD-65/67, Glutamate decarboxylase 65/67 kDa isoform) is encoded by GAD2/GAD1 (also known as GAD65/GAD67) gene (Gene ID: 2572/2571) in human. Glutamate decarboxylase isoforms are expressed in the brain where it is involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesis. Glutamate decarboxylase 2 is also expressed in pancreatic tissue. Both GAD65 and GAD67 synthesize GABA at different locations in the cell and at different developmental stages. Usually, GAD1 is distributed evenly throughout the cell while isoform GAD2 is mainly localized to nerve terminals. GAD1 synthesizes GABA for neuronal activity that is related to as synaptogenesis and protection from neural injury. However, GAD2 isoform synthesizes GABA for neurotransmission activity.
Specificity
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects GAD2 and GAD1 in human, Mouse, and Rat. It targets an epitope within 14 amino acids from the C-terminal region.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) acts on ventromedial hypothalamic targets to suppress counter-regulatory hormone release, thereby lowering blood glucose. Maladaptive up-regulation of GABA signaling is implicated in impaired counter-regulatory outflow during recurring insulin-induced hypoglycemia (RIIH). Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) GABAergic neurons express

The brain glycogen reserve is a source of oxidizable substrate fuel. Lactoprivic-sensitive hindbrain A2 noradrenergic neurons provide crucial metabolic-sensory input to downstream hypothalamic glucose-regulatory structures. Current research examined whether hindbrain glycogen fuel supply impacts A2 energy stability and governance of

Ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) gluco-regulatory transmission is subject to sex-specific control by estradiol. The VMN is characterized by high levels of aromatase expression. The aromatase inhibitor letrozole (LZ) was used with high-resolution microdissection/Western blot techniques to address the hypothesis that

Astrocyte glycogen, the primary energy reserve in brain, undergoes continuous remodeling by glucose passage through the glycogen shunt prior to conversion to the oxidizable energy fuel L-lactate. Glucogenic amino acids (GAAs) are a potential non-glucose energy source during neuro-metabolic instability.
