Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 1 (TRPC1) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 3q22-24. The encoded protein is a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily of cation channels and is distributed in both glomeruli and glomerular mesangial cells._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ Synthetic protein corresponding to amino acids 557-571 of human TRPC1 (GenBank® Accession No. P48995). The epitope is identical in mouse and rat and highly homologous in bovine and Xenopus._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Lyophilized at 0.3 mg/ml from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Legal Information_x000D_ GenBank is a registered trademark of United States Department of Health and Human Services_x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 1 (TRPC1) facilitates Ca2+ entry upon store depletion in a variety of cell types by forming a multimeric complex with other TRPCs. The encoded protein is implicated in the odontoblast-like differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs). Mutation in the gene is associated with the development type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Decreased expression of the gene leads to hepatocellular carcinoma cell proliferation and thus, TRPC1 can be considered as a potential therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma.
