The GluR4 antibody is a crucial tool for investigating the GluR4 subunit of AMPA-type glutamate receptors, which mediate the majority of fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. GluR4 (encoded by the GRIA4 gene) is one of four subunits (GluR1-4) that form tetrameric AMPA receptors, ligand-gated ion channels permeable to sodium and potassium. These receptors play pivotal roles in synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. GluR4 is distinguished by its rapid desensitization kinetics and lower expression in most brain regions compared to other subunits, though it is prominently expressed in the cerebellum, hippocampus, and cortex. Its expression is developmentally regulated and activity-dependent, with elevated levels during early postnatal stages.
GluR4 antibodies are widely used in techniques like Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunoprecipitation to study receptor localization, expression patterns, and interactions. Specificity is critical, as cross-reactivity with other AMPA receptor subunits must be excluded. Research applications include exploring GluR4's role in neurological and psychiatric disorders. Altered GluR4 expression or function has been implicated in conditions such as epilepsy, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Additionally, GluR4 antibodies aid in understanding mechanisms of synaptic scaling, receptor trafficking, and pharmacological modulation. Most antibodies target epitopes in the extracellular N-terminal or intracellular C-terminal domains, enabling differentiation between phosphorylated or glycosylated states. These tools continue to advance neuroscience by elucidating GluR4's contributions to neural circuit dynamics and disease pathology.
