Description: The transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1(TRPV1), also known as the capsaicin receptor is a protein which in humans is encoded by the TRPV1 gene. TRPV1(also called Vanilloid receptor type 1) is a ligand-gated nonselective cation channel that is considered to be an important integrator of various pain stimuli such as endogenous lipids, capsaicin, heat, and low pH. In addition to expression in primary afferents, TRPV1 is also expressed in the CNS. Cui M et al.(2006) demonstrate that TRPV1 receptors in the CNS plays an important role in pain mediated by central sensitization. And the significant CNS penetration is necessary for a TRPV1 antagonist to produce broad-spectrum analgesia. And TRPV1 also participates in normal bladder function and is essential for normal mechanically evoked purinergic signaling by the urothelium.

Immunogen: Recombinant human TRPV1 protein (amino acids E107-A800) was used as the immunogen for the TRPV1 antibody.

Storage: After reconstitution, the TRPV1 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
