Western Blot (WB)

(Western blot analysis of TRPM8 (arrow) using rabbit polyclonal TRPM8 Antibody (C-term C940).293 cell lysates (2 ug/lane) either nontransfected (Lane 1) or transiently transfected with the TRPM8 gene (Lane 2) (Origene Technologies).)

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human prostata carcinoma tissue reacted with TRPM8 antibody (C-term C940), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.)

Uniprot Description

TRPM8: Receptor-activated non-selective cation channel involved in detection of sensations such as coolness, by being activated by cold temperature below 25 degrees Celsius. Activated by icilin, eucalyptol, menthol, cold and modulation of intracellular pH. Involved in menthol sensation. Permeable for monovalent cations sodium, potassium, and cesium and divalent cation calcium. Temperature sensing is tightly linked to voltage-dependent gating. Activated upon depolarization, changes in temperature resulting in graded shifts of its voltage-dependent activation curves. The chemical agonists menthol functions as a gating modifier, shifting activation curves towards physiological membrane potentials. Temperature sensitivity arises from a tenfold difference in the activation energies associated with voltage-dependent opening and closing. Belongs to the transient receptor (TC 1.A.4) family. LTrpC subfamily. TRPM8 sub-subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
