General description

γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It also functions as a neuromodulator in some peripheral tissues. Additionally, GABA is present in non-nervous tissues and regulates blood pressure, heart rate, respiration, immunomodulation, cell proliferation, protein synthesis and metabolism.
Monoclonal Anti-GABA (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. The antibody does not cross react with L-α-aminobutyric acid, L-glutamic acid, L-aspartic acid, glycine, δ-aminovaleric acid, L-threonine, L-glutamine, taurine, putrescine, L-alanine and carnosine. However, weak cross-reaction is observed with β-alanine and ε-aminocaproic acid.
Monoclonal Anti-GABA (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and a neuromodulator in certain peripheral tissues. GABA is also present in non-nervous structures.

Immunogen

GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) conjugated to BSA

Application

Monoclonal Anti-GABA antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel.

Physical form

Supplied as ascites fluid with 15 mM sodium azide as preservative.

Analgesic effects of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) type 3 (5-HT3) receptors may involve the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the spinal dorsal horn. However, the precise synaptic mechanisms for 5-HT3 receptor-mediated spinal analgesia are not clear. In this study, we
