Storage before reconstitution: The antibody ships as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon arrival, it should be stored at -20°C.
Storage after reconstitution: The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods, small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. Avoid multiple freezing and thawing. Centrifuge all antibody preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).

Sujet
- OPN3, Encephalopsin, Panopsin,Opsin 3 (OPN3), also known as encephalopsin or panopsin, is a member of the opsin family, which are light-sensitive G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) primarily known for their role in vision.1-3Opsins are found throughout the animal kingdom and while most vertebrates have a similar repertoire of 6-20 genes, mammals most commonly have eight opsins, although humans have nine.1-3Unlike Rhodopsin (or Opsin 2), the founding member of the opsin family, which is located in the retina and is essential for vision in low-light conditions, Opsin 3 has a more widespread expression pattern and functions that extend beyond traditional visual processing.1-3Opsin 3 is expressed in various tissues, including the brain, skin, testes, and lungs, among others.1-3Opsin 3 is abundantly expressed in the skin (a major light sensing organ). The function of Opsin 3 in photodetection and photosensitivity is not clear, but it appears to be based in a light-independent manner and through the interaction with MC1R, another GPCR that is crucial for the regulation of pigmentation in the skin and hair. 4An intriguing role for Opsin 3 was described in relation to regulation of energy metabolism. Opsin 3 was shown to regulate thermogenesis and lipolysis via a blue-light dependent mechanism in adipose tissue. 5As mentioned above, Opsin 3 is extensively expressed in several brain regions, including cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus. Opsin 3 expression in brain regions associated with circadian rhythms, such as the hypothalamus, may suggest a possible role in regulating these rhythms. This connection could influence sleep-wake cycles and other circadian-related functions. In addition, Opsin 3 expression in regions like the hippocampus, a key area for memory and learning, indicates it might play a role in neural development or synaptic plasticity. This could have implications for learning, memory, and other cognitive functions. 4,6Finally, Opsin 3 has been detected in several cells of the immune system including T-cells and macrophages, implying that immune responses could be potentially regulated through light-related mechanisms.2,7
