TSPO is an 18kD protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane.
It was a secondary binding site for diazepam, but subsequent research has found the receptor to be expressed throughout the body and brain.
TSPO has been shown to be involved in a number of processes such as inflammation, and TSPO ligands may be useful anti-cancer drugs.
Activation of TSPO is also required for steroidogenesis to take place, and this is particularly important for the production of neuroactive steroids such as allopregnanolone in the brain.
This makes some TSPO ligands such as emapunil (XBD-173) useful as potential anxiolytics which may have less side effects than traditional benzodiazepine-type drugs.

Ready to use; no need to heat, dilute or add reducing agents before use.
Protein Bands: 10kD, 14kD, 18kD, 22kD, 26kD, 33kD, 44kD and 70kD
Double Intesity Bands: The 26kD, 18kD and 10kD bands are at double intensity to make location and size approximation of proteins easier.
Usage: Allow the marker to reach room temperature and mix thoroughly before use to ensure that any solids that may have precipitated at -20°C will go back into solution.
