Anti-SLC18A1 Antibody

Targeting the human SLC18A1 protein, this polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is raised in rabbit and supplied as an unconjugated IgG in a 50 µL volume. SLC18A1 encodes vesicular monoamine transporter 1 (VMAT1), the integral membrane transporter that loads monoamines including serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and histamine into secretory vesicles within neuroendocrine and chromaffin cells. Researchers apply it in validated Western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows on human tissue, using it to map VMAT1 expression in adrenal medulla, gut enterochromaffin cells, and select monoaminergic neuron populations. Because the antibody is unconjugated, individual labs can couple it to their preferred fluorophore, biotin, or enzyme label, matching detection chemistry to the imaging or chromogenic readout they have already optimized. The polyclonal format provides recognition of multiple epitopes across the target, supporting cleaner signals when antigen abundance is modest. A 50 µL pack size supports multiple Western blot membrane strips or a substantial set of immunohistochemistry slides, which is convenient for pilot optimization as well as confirmatory experiments on larger cohorts.
