Anti-PAR4 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total PAR4 protein.
F2R-like thrombin or trypsin receptor 3/coagulation factor 2 receptor-like 3 (F2RL3) gene codes for protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) protein. PAR4 belongs to the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) family. It is expressed at high levels in the lungs, pancreas, thyroid, testis, and small intestine. PAR4 gene is located on human chromosome 19p12. Anti-PAR4 antibody detects endogenous levels of total PAR4 protein.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human PAR4.
Immunogen Range: 29-78
Application
Anti-PAR4 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting (1:1000).[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) protein is involved in vascular inflammation. It is necessary for a stable thrombus as it mediates persistent thrombin signaling in platelets. PAR4 aids pro-inflammatory actions by interacting with the bradykinin B2 receptor. It is linked to renal function and the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are currently among the leading causes of death worldwide. Platelet aggregation is a key cellular component of arterial thrombi and major cause of CVDs. Protease-activated receptors (PARs), including PAR1, PAR2, PAR3 and PAR4, fall within a subfamily

Protease-activated receptors 1-3 (PAR1, PAR2, and PAR3) are members of a unique G protein-coupled receptor family. They are characterized by a tethered peptide ligand at the extracellular amino terminus that is generated by minor proteolysis. A partial cDNA sequence of

Protease-activated receptors (PARs) are a family of four GPCRs with a variety of cellular functions, yet the only advanced clinical endeavours to target these receptors for therapeutic gain to date relates to the impairment of platelet function for anti-thrombotic therapy.
Inflammatory diseases have become increasingly prevalent with industrialization. To address this, numerous anti-inflammatory agents and molecular targets have been considered in clinical trials. Among molecular targets, protease-activated receptors (PARs) are abundantly recognized for their roles in the development of chronic
Protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) mediates sustained thrombin signaling in platelets and is required for a stable thrombus. PAR4 is activated by proteolysis of the N terminus to expose a tethered ligand. The structural basis for PAR4 activation and the location
