Zebrafish SLC6A4 / SLC6A4A Antibody Brain IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE zebrafish brain tissue using Zebrafish SLC6A4 Antibody demonstrates distinct cytoplasmic HRP-DAB brown staining within scattered neuronal cell populations and neuropil-associated structures. The staining pattern is consistent with expression of Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 4A (SLC6A4A), a serotonin transporter that regulates serotonergic neurotransmission through reuptake of extracellular serotonin at neuronal synapses. Signal is observed throughout neural tissue compartments associated with neuronal communication and serotonin-dependent signaling pathways. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer. Primary antibody was incubated overnight at 4°C followed by detection using a peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody and DAB chromogen.
Zebrafish SLC6A4 / SLC6A4A Antibody Serotonergic Brain IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE zebrafish brain tissue using Zebrafish SLC6A4 Antibody demonstrates widespread cytoplasmic and neurite-associated HRP-DAB brown staining throughout neural tissue compartments. Signal is observed within neuronal cell populations and surrounding neuropil-rich regions, consistent with expression of Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 4A (SLC6A4A), a serotonin transporter involved in the regulation of serotonergic neurotransmission through reuptake of extracellular serotonin. The staining pattern highlights neural structures associated with serotonin-dependent signaling pathways and neuronal communication. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer. Primary antibody was incubated overnight at 4°C followed by detection using a peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody and DAB chromogen.
Zebrafish SLC6A4 / SLC6A4A Antibody Serotonin Transporter WB. Western blot analysis of whole zebrafish tissue lysate using Zebrafish SLC6A4 Antibody demonstrates a distinct immunoreactive band at approximately 70-80 kDa, consistent with expression of Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 4A (SLC6A4A). SLC6A4A encodes a serotonin transporter that regulates serotonergic neurotransmission through the reuptake of extracellular serotonin at neuronal synapses. The observed band migrates near the predicted molecular weight of SLC6A4A (~70 kDa) and supports detection of the endogenous protein in zebrafish tissue. Electrophoresis was performed on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel under reducing conditions followed by transfer to a nitrocellulose membrane. Signal was detected using an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody and enhanced chemiluminescent substrate. Predicted molecular weight: ~70 kDa.

Description

Zebrafish SLC6A4 Antibody / SLC6A4A Antibody recognizes SLC6A4A, a member of the solute carrier 6 family that functions as a serotonin transporter responsible for the reuptake of serotonin from extracellular spaces. Following release of serotonin by serotonergic neurons, SLC6A4A mediates transporter-dependent uptake of the neurotransmitter back into cells, thereby regulating serotonin availability, signal duration, and neurotransmitter homeostasis. Through this activity, SLC6A4A serves as a critical component of serotonergic signaling pathways that influence nervous system development, neuronal communication, and behavioral regulation. The highly conserved nature of serotonin transport has established zebrafish as an important model for investigating neurotransmitter biology and nervous system function.

SLC6A4A belongs to a family of sodium- and chloride-dependent neurotransmitter transport proteins that control extracellular neurotransmitter concentrations. By terminating serotonin-mediated signaling events and recycling neurotransmitter molecules for subsequent release, SLC6A4A contributes to maintenance of normal synaptic activity and neural circuit function. Researchers frequently evaluate SLC6A4A expression when studying serotonergic neurotransmission, neural development, behavioral responses, neuropharmacology, and mechanisms governing synaptic communication. Because serotonin signaling influences numerous physiological and developmental processes, SLC6A4A remains an important target in neuroscience research.

During vertebrate development, serotonergic pathways contribute to regulation of neuronal differentiation, neural circuit formation, sensory processing, and behavioral adaptation. Proper control of serotonin transporter activity is essential for maintaining balanced neurotransmitter signaling and normal nervous system function. Investigators commonly monitor SLC6A4A expression in studies examining neurodevelopment, neurotransmitter regulation, behavioral biology, and responses to pharmacological agents that target serotonin transport systems.

Zebrafish provide unique advantages for studying neurotransmitter biology because neural development and behavioral responses can be evaluated in a genetically tractable vertebrate model. Researchers frequently utilize zebrafish to investigate serotonergic signaling, nervous system development, neuroactive compounds, behavioral regulation, and neuronal pathway function. The conservation of serotonin transporter biology between zebrafish and mammals makes this system particularly valuable for understanding vertebrate neurotransmission and neurobiology.

At NSJ Bioreagents, we provide highly validated antibodies for neuroscience, neuropharmacology, developmental biology, and zebrafish research. Zebrafish SLC6A4 Antibody / SLC6A4A Antibody targets a key regulator of serotonin reuptake and neurotransmitter homeostasis. SLC6A4A expression is widely studied in the context of serotonergic signaling, synaptic transmission, neural development, behavioral biology, and nervous system function. Continued investigation of serotonin transporter biology is expanding our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that govern neurotransmitter regulation and vertebrate neural communication.
