Immunofluorescence
Immunoprecipitation
Application NotesFrozen Sections (1:500-1:1000, Cy3 technique; 1:3000-1:6000, HRP)
Immunoblotting (1:2000-1:2500; see application references)
Immunofluorescence (1:100-1:200)
Immunoprecipitation (see comments)
Application CommentsThe specificity was determined by immunolabeling of transfected cells, immunoblotting analysis, and immunoisolation studies. Antibody specificity was examined in the rat caudate putamen and dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Staining is completely eliminated by pre-treatment of antibody with immunogen peptide at a concentration of 10 µg/ml. This antibody has also been reported to work for immunopercipitation. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

DescriptionRabbit polyclonal antibody supplied as lyophilized, undiluted serum. Recognizes the ~44-45 kDa opioid µ receptor protein.
BackgroundOpioid peptides are endogenous neuromodulators, which have been identified from brain, and play a major role in the nociceptive pathway by interacting with several membrane receptors, defined as µ, δ, and κ. These peptides are derived from the cleavage of precursor proteins to produce the β-endorphin, enkephalin, and dynorphin peptides. Leu-enkephalin, Met-enkephalin, and β-endorphin all bind the µ and δ receptors with high affinity, while β-endorphin also exhibits low affinity κ binding. Dynorphin A and dynorphin B both bind the κ receptor with high affinity. In addition to these endogenous peptides, a number of exogenous nonpeptide molecules known as alkaloids or opiates also interact with the receptors to mediate a number of biological events which include the modulation of pain, analgesia, behavior, locomotor activity, and neuroendocrine physiology. Although the δ opioid receptor subtype was the first subtype identified, all three receptor classes are G protein-coupled receptors which have been shown to inhibit adenylate cyclase, decrease the conductance of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels, or activate K+ channel current.
