ABOUT THIS ANTIBODY

Anti-GluR2 labels horizontal cell dendrites

Glutamate receptor 2 (GluR2) antibody which marks GluR2 subunits of AMPA receptors. It stains horizontal cell dendrites in the monkeys (Haverkamp, Grünert and Wässle, 2000). In the killifish staining was found in the inner and outer plexiform layer which suggests it also labels horizontal cell dendrites in killifish.
