Viruses attacking nerve cell

Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH):

A feature common to all neurodegenerative parkinsonian disorders is loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. TH is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamines, including the neurotransmitter dopamine, and is widely used as a marker of dopaminergic neurons.

Our mouse monoclonal anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody LNC1 is the most widely-cited anti-TH antibody in the literature with over 2,500 citations to date.

For researchers needing to multiplex their anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase staining with antibodies from alternative host species we also offer the following highly quality anti-TH antibodies:

Sheep anti-Tyrosine hydroxylase antibody

Chicken anti-Tyrosine hydroxylase antibody

Rabbit anti-Tyrosine hydroxylase antibody

 

LRRK2: 

Mutations in LRRK2 represent the most common cause of inherited Parkinson's disease. A recent study comparing different commercially available anti-LRRK2 antibodies found that our anti-LRRK2 antibody N241A/34 is the best option for multiple different uses in rat, mouse, and human samples as the antibody of choice for Immunoblot, IP, ICC, and IHC.

Alpha Synuclein:

In addition to dopaminergic neuron loss in PD another hallmark of the disease is the accumulation of the protein alpha-synuclein within neurons into intracellular protein inclusions termed Lewy bodies. Alpha-synuclein accumulation into such aggregates can be reliably detected with anti-alpha synuclein antibodies. To allow for flexibility in multiplexing experiments where antibodies from multiple hosts are required we offer our chicken anti-alpha synuclein antibody
