Background InformationSolute carrier family 12 member 1 (UniProt Q13621; a.k.a. Bumetanide-sensitive sodium-(potassium)-chloride cotransporter 2) and solute carrier family 12 member 2 (UniProt P55011; a.k.a. Basolateral Na-K-Cl symporter, Bumetanide-sensitive sodium-(potassium)-chloride cotransporter 1) are encoded by the SLC12A1 (a.k.a. NKCC2; Gene ID 6557) and SLC12A2 (a.k.a. NKCC1; Gene ID 6558) gene, respectively, in human. NKCC1 (SLC12A2) and NKCC2 (SLC12A1) belong to the subfamily of cation-chloride cotransporters (CCCs) that mediate electroneutral transport of sodium, potassium and chloride across the plasma membrane and are inhibited by bumetanide and furosemide-type of compounds. NKCCs play an important role in cell volume regulation, where NKCC2 is involved in reabsorption of salt and osmotically-obliged water in renal epithelial cells, while NKCC1 has a major impact on intracellular chloride ion concentration ([Cl-]i) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and neuronal cells. In primary hypertension, NKCC1 activity is increased in VSMCs and paraventricular nucleus (PVN) neurons, leading to elevated peripheral resistance in systemic circulation and activation of sympathetic nerve system (SNS), respectively. Human NKCC1 and NKCC2 are 12-transmembrane proteins having their N- and C-terminal ends exposed at the cytoplasmic side (a.a. 1-285 and 921-1212 of NKCC1; a.a. 1-177 and 814-1099 of NKCC2).

(2005). Anat. Rec. A Discov. Mol. Cell. Evol. Biol. 285(1):600-609).

Immunofluorescence Analysis: Representative lots detected brain tissue NKCC immunoreactivity by fluorescent immunohistochemistry staining of free-floating mouse and rat brain sections (Liu, F., et al. (2010). Exp. Neurol. 224(2):356-361; Yan, Y., et al. (2001). J. Cereb. Blood Flow Metab. 21(6):711 721).

Immunofluorescence Analysis: A representative lot detected NKCC immunolocalization by fluorescent immunohistochemistry staining of MeOH (80%)/DMSO (20%) fixed rat kidney cryosections (Ginns, S.M., et al. (1996). J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. 7(12):2533-2542).

Immunofluorescence Analysis: A representative lot immunostained basolateral margin of the acinar cells, but not the apical pole or cell interior by fluorescent immunohistochemistry staining of PLP-fixed (2% paraformaldehyde, 75 mM lysine, 10 mM sodium periodate) rabbit parotid gland cryosections (Lytle, C., et al. (1995). Am. J. Physiol. 269(6 Pt 1):C1469-C1505).

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected NKCC immunoreactivity by immunohistochemistry staining of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed free-floating rat brain sections (Yan, Y., et al. (2001). J. Cereb. Blood Flow Metab. 21(6):711 721).

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected NKCC immunoreactivity in 10% formalin-fixed, Paraplast Plus-embedded gerbil kidney and inner ear tissue sections (Crouch, J.J., et al. (1997). J. Histochem. Cytochem. 45(6):773-778).

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected Na-K-Cl cotransporters in serous acinar cells, but not along striated ducts in PLP-fixed (2% paraformaldehyde, 75 mM lysine, 10 mM sodium periodate) rabbit parotid gland cryosections (Lytle, C., et al. (1995). Am. J. Physiol. 269(6 Pt 1):C1469-C1505).

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: Representative lot immunoprecipitated denatured, but not non-denatured human and canine Na-K-Cl cotransport proteins (Lytle, C., et al. (1995). Am. J. Physiol. 269(6 Pt 1):C1469-C1505; Haas, M., et al. (1995). J. Biol. Chem. 270(48):28955 28961).

N-glycosylase F treatment of the extracts reduced the sizes of target bands (Lytle, C., et al. (1995). Am. J. Physiol. 269(6 Pt 1):C1469-C1505).

Note: Clone T4 epitope is not exposed on the surface of Na-K-Cl cotransport protein in its native conformation. Denature NKCC with the addtion of SDS to a final concentration of 1% in test samples, then diluting the denatured samples into 6 v
