Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. IHC-P: Use at a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval via the pressure cooker method before commencing with IHC staining protocol. WB: 1/100. Detects a band of approximately 57 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 57 kDa).
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

|
Positive control
(see definition)
|
Positive staining can be observed in embryonic and adult central nervous system. Rat radial glial cells of the developing central nervous system from E11 to E19. In rat peripheral nerves a selective intracellular immunoreactivity can be found in perinuclear region of most Schwann cells which form the myelin sheath. However, some Schwann cells were negative for the antigen.

Relevance

Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMP) are members of the TGF beta superfamily of cytokines that affect bone and cartilage formation. Similar to other TGF beta family proteins, BMPs are highly conserved across animal species. BMPs are involved in embryogenesis and morphogenesis of various tissues and organs. BMP6 is an autocrine stimulator of chondrocyte differentiation and has been implicated in the development of embryonic kidney and urinary systems. It is involved in liver growth and differentiation, keratinocyte differentiation, and regulation of neuronal tissue development. BMP6 expression is localized to smooth muscle cells of normal cerebral blood vessels, intimal plaques and atherosclerotically changed blood vessels, further suggesting a role as a regulator of developing tissues.
Pre-incubation of anti BMP6 with amino-terminal peptide 1-29 of BMP6 inhibits binding of the mAb to tissue sections. Pre-incubation with other amino-terminal synthetic peptides of human BMP7, BMP4, BMP3 and BMP2 as well as an irrelevant peptide does not inhibit specific tissue staining.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - BMP6 antibody [morph-6.1] (ab15640)
ab15640 staining human U2-OS cells by ICC/IF. Cells were PFA fixed and permeabilized in Triton-X-100 prior to blocking in 2% serum for 1 hour at 20°C. The primary antibody was diluted 1/100 and incubated with the sample for 1 hour at 37°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor®488 conjugated chicken anti-mouse, diluted 1/1000.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - BMP6 antibody [morph-6.1] (ab15640)
ICC/IF image of ab15640 staining primary myoblast cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 5% normal donkey serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tritonx100 for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab15640, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h.
