Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RI0048
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human SCN2A.
Background The voltage gated sodium channel isoform Nav1.2 is involved with axon potential initiation and conduction. Nav1.2 is the target of antiepileptic drugs and the probable target causing side effects of centrally active local anaesthetics. It is detected in relative abundance on myelin-deficient areas on axons in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Demyelinated axons expressing Nav1.2 are much less susceptible to axonal degeneration. The action of a drug on Nav1.2 sodium channels may interfere with the fine balance between axon growth and nerve impulse transmission.

Safety Considerations The following safety precautions should be observed.
1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.
2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.
3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.
4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.
5. All waste should be considered hazardous.
6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.
