MyBioSource.com's NTS Polyclonal Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Western Blot. The NTS Polyclonal Antibody was generated using Neurotensin, and NTS as the antigen and it reacts with Mouse, and Rat.
Description
This gene encodes a common precursor for two peptides, neuromedin N and neurotensin. Neurotensin is a secreted tridecapeptide, which is widely distributed throughout the central nervous system, and may function as a neurotransmitter or a neuromodulator. It may be involved in dopamine-associated pathophysiological events, in the maintenance of gut structure and function, and in the regulation of fat metabolism. Neurotensin also exhibits antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. Tissue-specific processing may lead to the formation in some tissues of larger forms of neuromedin N and neurotensin. The large forms may represent more stable peptides that are also biologically active
