Anti-SERT-SAP (Cat. #IT-23) utilizes a monoclonal antibody to the fourth extracellular domain of the serotonin re-uptake transporter (SERT). SERT is the major determinant of serotonin inactivation following release at synapses, is the site of action for many tricyclic antidepressants and the SSRIs (serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors), and is also targeted by a number of psychostimulants including

The Mac-1-SAP targeted toxins recognize Mac-1-positive (CD11b) cells in mouse/human (Cat. #IT-06) or in rat (Cat. #IT-33). The toxin is excellent for removing contaminating macrophages from primary cultures. Elimination of macrophages in vivo is useful to determine their role(s) in autoimmune diseases and in degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Both toxins are extremely potent, with

The Glutathione S-Transferase (GST) family of enzymes contains cytosolic, mitochondrial, and microsomal proteins that are capable of multiple reactions with a multitude of substrates, both endogenous and xenobiotic. GST catalyzes the conjugation of reduced glutathione which is useful in the detoxification of endogenous compounds such as peroxidized lipids, as well as the metabolism of xenobiotics.
