Description
Calbindin D28K Polyclonal Antibody. Vitamin D-dependent 28 kDa calcium-binding protein (calbindin D 28k or CB) is a member of the calmodulin superfamily of calcium binding proteins discovered in 1966 by Wasserman and Taylor. The protein has a distinct distribution in the brain and sensory system and is abundant in specific neuronal cell types. Calbindin D-28k constitutes as much as 0.1-1.5 % of the total soluble protein in brain and it may be present at intracellular concentrations up to 1 mM. Several recent studies have shown that calbindin D can protect cells from degeneration and ischemic injury under extracellular stress. In particular, this is demonstrated in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patients. Cells containing calbindin D have
