Anti-TSPO antibody produced in mouse

产品说明

一般描述

Translocator protein (TSPO) contains five α helices. The TSPO gene is mapped to human chromosome 22q13.2. It is expressed in activated microglia.

生化/生理作用

Translocator protein (TSPO) serves as a marker for microglial activation. The levels of TSPO are elevated in multiple sclerosis, Huntington′s disease (HD), and brain ischemia as well as in gliomas. TSPO functions as a key target for understanding neuroinflammation and has applications in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. It also binds to cholesterol. The TSPO gene polymorphism may be associated with the pathophysiology of panic attacks, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. Together with voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), TSPO regulates terminal erythropoiesis as well as autophagy in mitochondria.
