Please note: We are reviewing Western blot images included in the antibody testing data in our catalog, including those provided by third parties. Unless expressly labeled or annotated as “raw-unedited”, Western blot images included in the antibody testing data in our catalog may have been edited, optimized or otherwise adjusted for presentation.
IHC (P) analysis shows positive staining of GPR18 in human enteric ganglion tissue.
WB analysis shows GPR18 in glycoprotein-enriched fractions from GPR18 overexpressing 293 cells. A band of similar MW was also detected in GPR3 overexpressing 293 cells, suggesting some cross-reactivity with GPR3 or enhanced detection of basal GPR18 in the enriched fractions.
While GPR18 has a theoretical MW of ~ 38kD, the observed band in a WB runs at ~70kD due to enrichment of the glycosylated receptor.
The G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily is comprised of an estimated 600-1,000 members and is the largest known class of molecular targets with proven therapeutic value. GPR18 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor found at high levels in the testis, small intestines and cells associated with the immune system including lymphocytes, thymus and spleen. GPR18 has been found to be a receptor for endogenous lipid neurotransmitters, several of which also bind to cannabinoid receptors. Some ligands described to be GPR18 agonists or partial agonists include N-Arachidonoylglycine, Abnormal cannabidiol, O-1602, AM-251, Cannabidiol, delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol, N-arachidonoyl ethanolamine and Arachidonylcyclopropylamide. Antagonists include the synthetic cannabidiol related compounds CID-85469571 and O-1918.
