Mouse Anti-Porcine Glutamate Receptor (GRIK2) Monoclonal Antibody

Porcine glutamate receptor plays a pivotal role in neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity in the pig's central nervous system. As the major excitatory neurotransmitter, glutamate signaling through its receptors is essential for cognitive functions and behavior. Recent studies have highlighted the role of glutamate in intestinal health and immune response modulation. Glutamate has been shown to alleviate intestinal injury and maintain the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, which is crucial for protein synthesis and cell growth. Additionally, it suppresses the TLR4 and NOD signaling pathways, which are involved in inflammatory responses, thereby potentially reducing inflammation in the intestine. This implies that glutamate receptors may be involved in the complex interplay between the nervous system and the immune system, particularly in the context of gut health. Understanding the role of porcine glutamate receptors in these processes could have implications for developing strategies to improve animal health and performance.
