The neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1) gene has 4 exons and 3 introns and is 53.93 Kb long. NTSR1 is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. It consists of 4 extracellular and intracellular loops. It is expressed in the amygdal nucleus, ventral tegmental area, substantia nigra, striatum and entorhinal, and prefrontal cortices of the central nervous system.
Immunogen
Synthetic 18 amino acid peptide from N-terminal extracellular domain of human NTSR1. Percent identity with other species by BLAST analysis: Human, Gorilla, Gibbon, Monkey (100%); Elephant (94%); Marmoset (89%); Hamster (83%).
Application
Anti-NTSR1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry (IHC) (1:500).
Biochem/physiol Actions
The neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1) plays a regulatory role in the initiation, proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis, and differentiation of tumors through several pathways. Overexpression of NTSR1 is seen in lung cancer, malignant prostatic tumors, and malignant cell lines. NTSR1 is a risk factor that participates in the progression of ductal breast cancer.

The interaction between neuroendocrine and immune components of the gut maintains the organism's physical and psychological health. Its disruption may reflect in disease conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and mental illness. The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) disrupts the endocrine-immune homeostasis
