TRESK Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
TRESK antibody was raised against a 17 amino acid synthetic peptide from near the center of human TRESK. The immunogen is located within amino acids 210 - 260 of TRESK.
TRESK antibody can be used for detection of TRESK by Western blot at 1 - 2 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in rat samples, Immunohistochemistry in rat samples and Immunofluorescence in rat samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

Target
KCNK18
(Potassium Channel Subfamily K Member 18 (KCNK18))
TRESK Antibody: TRESK (TWIK-related spinal cord K+ channel) is a two-pore domain K+ channel that induces outward rectification and functions as a background K+ channel that is abundantly expressed in the spinal cord, thymus, spleen, and leukemic T-lymphocytes. TRESK is activated by increased cytoplasmic calcium concentration through calcineurin as well as by acetylcholine and histamine. It has been suggested that TRESK is linked to acute and chronic pain by activation of calcineurin. Other studies indicate that TRESK may play a role in the regulation of T-cell function and could be an excellent target to treat T-cell originated immune dysfunction.
