Our Anti-Trk B rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from PhosphoSolutions is produced in-house. It detects rat Trk B and is affinity purified. It is great for use in WB.
Western blot of rat synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) lysate showing the specific immunolabeling of the ~93 kDa TrkB protein.
Tropomyosin-receptor-kinase (TRK) receptors are members of the receptor tyrosine kinase family and include TrkA, TrkB and TrkC. Each of these receptor types has different binding affinities to the neurotrophins nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin 3 (NT-3). TrkB has the highest affinity to binding BDNF which plays critical roles in the function and survival of neurons in the CNS (Soppet et al., 1991; Klein et al., 1991). Additionally, alterations in expression of TrkB have been associated with Alzheimer’s disease (Ferrer et al., 1999; Chen et al., 2008).
