Background Information
CHAT (choline acetyltransferase) belongs to the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family. It catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses. Defects in CHAT are the cause of congenital myasthenic syndrome with episodic apnea (CMSEA). CHAT is known to to be present exclusively in the cytoplasm of cholinergic neurons and anti-CHAT antibody has been considered as the best marker for cholinergic neurons.

Publications
What published studies show
The CHAT Monoclonal antibody (Cat# 66816-1-Ig) has 2 published citations. One appears in Neuron (2025), investigating metabolic reprogramming via histone lactylation in microglia and macrophages and its role in recruiting CD8+ T lymphocytes to aggravate spinal cord injury, using immunofluorescence in mouse. The other is in Cardiology Research and Practice (2026), examining how electroacupuncture protects against post-myocardial infarction heart failure through autonomic regulation and α7nAChR activation. The associated research fields span neuroimmunology, spinal cord injury, and cardiovascular medicine.
