SLC22A2 (solute carrier family 22 member 2), also known as Organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), is a membrane transporter protein that mediates the uptake of small organic cations. It is predominantly expressed in the basolateral membrane of renal proximal tubule cells, where it plays a vital role in the clearance of endogenous metabolites, xenobiotics, and therapeutic drugs from the bloodstream into the urine. A SLC22A2 antibody is widely used in studies of renal physiology, drug transport, and pharmacokinetics.
Functionally, SLC22A2 transports a broad range of substrates, including neurotransmitters such as dopamine, as well as clinically important drugs like metformin and cisplatin. This wide substrate specificity makes SLC22A2 a key determinant of drug disposition and response. Employing a SLC22A2 antibody allows researchers to assess its expression levels, tissue distribution, and regulation in both normal and pathological conditions.
Alterations in SLC22A2 activity have clinical significance. Genetic polymorphisms in SLC22A2 can affect drug pharmacokinetics, leading to interindividual variability in therapeutic efficacy and toxicity. Reduced transporter function has been linked to impaired renal clearance of cationic drugs and altered susceptibility to nephrotoxicity. In addition, SLC22A2 expression changes have been reported in kidney disease and certain cancers. A SLC22A2 antibody provides a reliable means to investigate these associations and their impact on human health.
NSJ Bioreagents provides a high-quality SLC22A2 antibody validated for applications including western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. Selecting a SLC22A2 antibody from NSJ Bioreagents ensures reproducibility and accuracy in studies focused on renal transport, pharmacogenomics, and toxicology.
Optimal dilution of the SLC22A2 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Amino acids ETIEEAENMQRPRKNKEKMIYLQVQKLDIPLN of human SLC22A2 were used as the immunogen for the SLC22A2 antibody.
After reconstitution, the SLC22A2 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
