Important Note: During shipment, small volumes of product will occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial. We recommend briefly centrifuging the vial to dislodge any liquid in the container’s cap prior to opening.
Warning: This reagent may contain sodium azide. The chemical, physical, and toxicological properties of this material have not been thoroughly investigated. Standard Laboratory Practices should be followed. Avoid skin and eye contact, inhalation, and ingestion. Sodium azide forms hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions and may react with lead or copper plumbing to form highly explosive metal azides. On disposal, flush with large volumes of water to prevent accumulation.

Description/Background | P2RY12 (P2Y12) is a G-protein coupled receptors, belonging to a family with different pharmacological selectivity for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor is involved in platelet aggregation and is a target of antagonists for platelet inhibition in the treatment of coronary artery and cerebrovascular disease, thromboembolisms and other clotting disorders. In the brain, mediates microglia chemotaxis as part of closure of the blood-brain barrier following breakdown from injury. Mutations in this gene are implicated in bleeding disorder, platelet type 8 (BDPLT8). In immunohistochemistry, P2RY12 has membranous and cytoplasmic positivity in the amygdala, on small neurons of the caudate nucleus populations of nuclei in the medula, on astrocytes and in the posterior pituitary. In peripheral tissues, P2RY12 stains platelet pellets, bone marrow megakaryocytes, pancreatic islets, some lung pneumocytes, the bladder epithelium, gastrointestinal neuroendocrine cells, and Leydig cells of the testis. |
