**Background of GJD2 Antibody**

GJD2 (gap junction delta-2), also known as connexin 36 (Cx36) in humans, is a member of the connexin family of proteins that form gap junctions—specialized intercellular channels enabling direct electrical and metabolic communication between cells. Predominantly expressed in neurons, GJD2 is crucial for synchronizing neural activity, particularly in the brain and retina, where it mediates electrical synapses. These synapses are essential for processes like visual signaling, circadian rhythm regulation, and network oscillations.

Antibodies targeting GJD2 are vital tools in neuroscience research, enabling the localization, quantification, and functional analysis of this protein. They are widely used in techniques such as immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence to study gap junction distribution and dynamics in neural tissues. Research involving GJD2 antibodies has advanced understanding of neurodevelopmental disorders, epilepsy, and retinal pathologies, as disrupted gap junction communication is implicated in these conditions.

Despite their utility, GJD2 antibodies require rigorous validation due to potential cross-reactivity with other connexins. Their specificity ensures accurate insights into the role of electrical synapses in health and disease, highlighting their importance in both basic and translational neuroscience.
