Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions IF: Use at an assay dependent concentration. IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent concentration. IHC-Fr: Use at an assay dependent concentration. IP: Use at an assay dependent concentration. WB: Use at an assay dependent concentration.
This antibody may be diluted to a titer of 1:25-1:50 in an ABC method. We suggest an incubation period of 30 minutes at room temperature. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections require high temperature antigen unmasking with 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 prior to immunostaining.
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance
|
Thrombospondin is a regulator of many biological processes including cell growth, adhesion, migration, platelet aggregation, and fibrin deposition and lysis. It interacts with a number of plasma proteins such as fibrinogen and plasminogen and co-polymerizes with fibrin in clot formation. Thrombospondin also has multiple binding sites that interact with molecules such as fibronectin, collagens, laminin and heparan sulphate proteoglycans as well as binding growth factors such as TGF-beta1. Thrombospondin exerts an anti-adhesive effect which leads to cell rounding and detachment. Thrombospondin is also implicated in a key role in brain development and synapse regulation.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Thrombospondin antibody [A6.1] (ab1823)
ICC/IF image of ab1823 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab1823, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Thrombospondin antibody [A6.1] (ab1823)
ab1823 staining Thrombospondin in a primary culture of rat astrocytes by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunoflurescence). Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton and blocked with 3% BSA for 15 minutes at 20°C. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/50: 3% BSA; PBS) for 30 minutes at 20°C. A Cy3®-conjugated-Donkey polyclonal to mouse IgG (1/500) was used as secondary antibody.
