Immunocytochemistry - Anti-Nav1.8/SCN10A antibody (AB66743)
ab66743 staining Nav1.8/SCN10A in human sperm cells by Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence.Sperm cells were washed, re-suspended in phosphate-buffered saline and smeared onto poly-L-lysine-coated slides. Spermatozoa were then fixed by incubation in cold methanol (-20°C) for 20 minutes. Slides were washed three times for 10 minutes with PBS and incubated with 2% BSA in PBS for 30 minutes to block non-specific sites. Test slides were incubated with ab66743 at a 1/100 dilution. Samples were washed three times in PBS, and incubated for 60 minutes with appropriate FITC-conjugated secondary antibodies. Slides were further washed in PBS, mounted using Vectashield and examined with a Olympus BX-51 fluorescence microscopy using a 100× immersion objective.

Biological function summary
Nav1.8 contributes significantly to pain transmission especially in nociceptive neurons which detect painful stimuli. It operates as a principal component in generating sustained action potentials required for pain signal propagation. Nav1.8 is not a part of a larger complex but plays a standalone critical role. It shows high expression during inflammatory and neuropathic pain conditions indicating its role in pain pathways.
Pathways
Nav1.8 is involved in both the pain and neuroinflammatory pathways. It influences the activity of other sodium channels such as Nav1.7 another critical mediator of pain sensation. Pain pathways extensively integrate Nav1.8 function especially in the modulation of pain thresholds and states. Neuroinflammatory pathways utilize Nav1.8 to alter neuron excitability under inflammatory conditions which is significant for understanding different pain modalities.
