TRPV6 Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody against TRPV6. The transient receptor potential (TRP) protein family consists of a diverse group of cation channels functioning in a variety of homeostatic and regulatory pathways. Four subfamilies exist, based on channel domain homology, not activating stimuli: C type (canonical or classical), V type (vanilloid receptor related), M type (melastatin related) and P type (PKD). TRPV6 belongs to the V type subfamily, and it facilitates calcium entry across the plasma membrane in pancreas, placenta, and to a lesser extent stomach and kidney tissue. Furthermore, prostate cancer cells overexpress TRPV6, while benign prostate tissues do not express the protein, implying a role for TRPV6 in malignant growth.
