兔抗GAD2多克隆抗体

Background:

The enzyme glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is responsible for the synthesis of the essential neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from L-glutamic acid. GAD1 (GAD67) and GAD2 (GAD65) are expressed in nervous and endocrine systems and are thought to be involved in synaptic transmission and insulin secretion, respectively. Autoantibodies against GAD2 may serve as markers for type I diabetes. Many individuals suffering from an adult onset disorder known as Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) also express autoantibodies to GAD2).
