Na+ CP type Vα Antibody (4G8:1G7) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Na+ CP type Vα in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB) and immunofluorescence (IF). Na+ CP type Vα, encoded by the SCN5A gene located on chromosome 3q21-24, plays a crucial role in the cardiac action potential by facilitating the initial depolarization phase, which is essential for the proper conduction of electrical signals through the heart. Na+ CP type Vα is primarily expressed in human atrial and ventricular cardiac muscle, where Na+ CP type Vα contributes to the regulation of sodium ion flow across the cell membrane, thereby influencing heart rhythm and contractility. Mutations in the SCN5A gene can lead to various cardiac arrhythmias, including Brugada syndrome and long QT syndrome type III, highlighting Na+ CP type Vα′s significance in maintaining cardiac health. Anti-Na+ CP type Vα antibody (4G8:1G7) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying cardiac function and the molecular mechanisms underlying arrhythmias, providing insights into both normal physiology and pathological conditions.
