Our Anti-VAChT mouse monoclonal primary antibody from NeuroMab is produced in-house from hybridoma clone N6/38. It detects electric ray, human, mouse and rat VAChT, and is purified by Protein A chromatography. It is great for use in IHC, ICC.
Coronal sections of rat cerebellum, stained with human patient autoantibodies (I, red) and anti-VAChT (J, green, Cat no 75-020, 1:300). Colocalization was not observed when mixing the anti-VAChT with the autoantibodies (merge K, red labeling + green labeling), In addition, autoantibody labeling was identified with Cy3 red labeling, while the antibodies were identified with Alexa488 green labeling.

Vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VaCht), or Solute Carrier Family 18 Member A3 is encoded by the gene Slc18a3 and is a member of the vesicular amine transporter family. VaCht transports acetylcholine into secretory vesicles for release into the extracellular space. VaCht is expressed in major cholinergic cell groups in the peripheral and central cholinergic nervous systems. Diseases associated with SLC18A3 include Myasthenic Syndrome and Presynaptic and Presynaptic Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes.
