Anti-SLCO1C1 Antibody

This rabbit polyclonal IgG antibody targets the human SLCO1C1 membrane transporter, a member of the organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) family. SLCO1C1, also known as OATP1C1 or OATP-F, is expressed at the blood-brain barrier and plays a critical role in transporting thyroid hormones, particularly thyroxine (T4), into the central nervous system. Researchers studying neuroendocrine signaling, thyroid hormone uptake across brain endothelium, or solute carrier biology use this unconjugated reagent from Antibodies.com for Western blot analysis of human samples. The antibody is supplied as 100 µL of polyclonal rabbit IgG, with reactivity limited to human SLCO1C1. To preserve activity, aliquot upon arrival and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Polyclonal antibodies bind multiple epitopes on the target, which often boosts detection sensitivity in Western blot of cell lysates and tissue homogenates. Validated for Western blot and intended for research use only, the reagent supports investigation of OATP1C1 expression patterns in brain, testis, and other tissues where the transporter is endogenously expressed.
