Small volumes of anti-SLC12A3 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Background Info: Detects ~160kDa

Scientific Background: NCC, a thiazide-sensitive NaCl co-transporter, is found on the apical membrane of the distal convoluted tubule, where it is the principal mediator of Na+ and Cl- reabsorption in this segment of the nephron. It is activated by phosphorylation, and has been implicated in renal NaCl and K+ homeostasis (1). Regulation of NCC expression and phosphorylation by dietary NACl restriction appears to involve SGK1(1). In experiments with angiotensin II-infused mice, increased sensitivity to Ang II may involved over-activity of NCC (2). Therefore, NCC is the target of thiazide diuretics used in the treatment of hypertension (1). Molecular experiments have also shown that NCC has been detected in the lens cortex, core and fiber cells of a rat (3).

S12A3_RAT

This gene encodes a renal thiazide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransporter that is important for electrolyte homeostasis. This cotransporter mediates sodium and chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule. Mutations in this gene cause Gitelman syndrome, a disease similar to Bartter's syndrome, that is characterized by hypokalemic alkalosis combined with hypomagnesemia, low urinary calcium, and increased renin activity associated with normal blood pressure. This cotransporter is the target for thiazide diuretics that are used for treating high blood pressure. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

NCCT: Key mediator of sodium and chloride reabsorption in this nephron segment, accounting for a significant fraction of renal sodium reabsorption. Interacts with KLHL3. Predominant in kidney. Activated by WNK3. Belongs to the SLC12A transporter family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
