Development and characterization of a monoclonal antibody blocking human TRPM4 channel

Abstract TRPM4 is a calcium-activated non-selective monovalent cation channel implicated in diseases such as stroke. Lack of potent and selective inhibitors remains a major challenge for studying TRPM4. Using a polypeptide from rat TRPM4, we have generated a polyclonal antibody M4P which could allev...
