A3 Adenosine Receptor is a widely expressed receptor that mediates the multiple functions of adenosine. For example, this receptor is believed to mediate the protective effect of adenosine released during cardiac ischemia. In lungs, the receptor mediates inhibition of eosinophil chemotaxis and may be useful in the treatment of eosinophil-dependent diseases such as asthma and rhinitis. Adenosine A3 Receptor has been reported mostly in brain, lung, liver, heart, kidney, and testis. ESTs have been isolated from heart/melanocyte/uterus, kidney, pituitary, and placenta libraries.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry (paraffin-embedded sections). Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
