Cat. No. CSC-RI0168
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human SCN8A.
Background The human SCN8A gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of Nav1.6, a voltage-gated sodium channel expressed in central and peripheral nervous systems. Mutations in the mouse ortholog cause ataxia and other movement disorders. Nav1.6 channels are therapeutic targets in multiple sclerosis and seizure.
