Product Specific Information

This antibody recognizes the 180 kDa 2A subunit from rat, mouse and human, and does not cross-react with the 2B or 2C subunits.

Storage and reconstitution: when stored at -20ºC or below, the lyophilized antibody should retain full activity for over one year. Reconstitute using 50 µL PBS, pH 7.4, to yield a 0.2 mg/mL solution. If storing at 0-4ºC, add sodium azide to a final concentration of 2mM. For longer storage, divide the solution into aliquots and freeze at -20ºC, avoiding freeze/thaw cycles.

Target Information

N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are a class of ionotropic glutamate-gated ion channels. These receptors have been shown to be involved in long-term potentiation, an activity-dependent increase in the efficiency of synaptic transmission thought to underlie certain kinds of memory and learning. NMDA receptor channels are heteromers composed of the key receptor subunit NMDAR1 (GRIN1) and 1 or more of the 4 NMDAR2 subunits: NMDAR2A (GRIN2A), NMDAR2B (GRIN2B), NMDAR2C (GRIN2C) and NMDAR2D (GRIN2D). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Loss of spines in the prelimbic cortex is detrimental to working memory in mice with early-life adversity.

Molecular psychiatry

Xu L,Liu Y,Long J,He X,Xie F,Yin Q,Chen M,Long D,Chen Y

A-6473 was used in Western Blotting to investigate the impact of early-life adversity (ELA) on dendritic spines, postsynaptic puncta, and glutamatergic transmission in the prelimbic cortex, finding that ELA results in the loss of spines, postsynaptic puncta, and depressed glutamatergic transmission, which contributes to poor spatial working memory, and exciting Thy1-expressing PrL pyramidal cells can improve working memory in ELA mice.
