Target

  • Function

    Could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells.
  • Tissue specificity

    Highly expressed by blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. Also expressed in lymphocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Expressed in many tumor cell lines which could allow them to attach to selectins on vascular endothelium, facilitating their dissemination to secondary sites.
  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the LAMP family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications

    N- and O-glycosylated.
  • Cellular localization

    Cell membrane and Endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane.

      Overlay histogram showing THP1 cells stained with ab845 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab845, 1/4 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H&L) (ab150113) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 1µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

    Question

    Hola ,
    ¿Qué tal? estoy interesada en inmunofluorescencia
    de doble marcaje en tejidos humanos parafinados.
    En concreto me interesarían los anticuerpos primarios, a ser posible
    monoclonales, de distintas especies para poder combinarlos, contra las
    siguientes proteínas humanas:
    * OCT4: ab18976, ab109183, ab129030
    * tenascin C: ab6346, ab3970, ab108930, ab86182
    * CD68: ab955, ab845, ab125047
    * S100A6: ab11181, ab117714, ab75676
    * ganglioside GD2: ab68456
    * Sox10: ab107532, ab122977
    * MMP9: ab76003, ab119906
    * CD163: ab111250, ab100909
    * PNMT: ab119784
    He indicado los productos que me parecían interesantes de la web, pero
    acepto sugerencias.
    Y tambíen estaría interesada en los anticuerpos secundarios marcados
    con distintos fluorocromos para anticuerpos de distintas especies.
    Necesitaría la ficha técnica y el precio de cada uno de ellos.
    Muchas gracias.
    Saludos,

    Answer

    Muchas gracias por tu respuesta.

    Es importante que todos los anticuerpos que escojas para llevar a cabo IHC-P en tejido humano estén validados (y por tanto garantizados por Abcam) para funcionar en esta especie y aplicación. Esta información aparece en la hoja técnica de los productos.

    También es importante echar un vistazo a las hojas de datos de cada uno de los productos para tener en cuenta recomendaciones especificas, tales como diluciones, métodos de recuperación antigénica, y demás que pueden aparecer en ellas. A las fichas técnicas se puede acceder desde la página web, escribiendo el código del anticuerpo (ab955, por ejemplo) en la casilla azul en la parte de arriba de nuestra página web (https://www.abcam.com/).

    Desconozco las combinaciones que queréis llevar a cabo mediante inmunofluorescencia doble con los anticuerpos mencionados. En general, a la hora de hacer inmunoensayos múltiples hay que tener mucha precaución para evitar reactividad cruzada. Es importante usar anticuerpos procedentes de distintas especies si se puede, o al menos con diferentes isotipos. Una buena forma de evitar reactividad cruzada es usando secundarios de la misma especie. Además esto permite usar suero de dicha especie para bloquear.

    Te copio los links a los protocolos que tenemos en nuestra web para llevar a cabo doble inmunofluorescencia por s pudieran resultar de ayuda:

    https://www.abcam.com/index.html?pageconfig=resource&rid=11459

    https://www.abcam.com/index.html?pageconfig=resource&rid=11458

    De todas maneras si quieres que comentemos distintas posibilidades y escenarios posibles, no dudes en contactarme otra vez.

    Respecto a los secundarios, tenemos muchos anticuerpos que podrían serviros. Te aconsejo que en función de los primarios y combinaciones que vayáis a llevar a cabo, optéis por uno u otro. Para llevar a cabo la búsqueda de los secundarios desde la pagina web (https://www.abcam.com/) pincha en la pestaña “Secondary Antibodies”. Se abre una nueva ventana de “Advance Search”, en la cual se pueden elegir las categorías requeridas. La única categoría obligatoria es el isotipo del anticuerpo, pues tiene que coincidir con el del primario. El resto de categorías son opcionales, pero son muy útiles para afinar la búsqueda y elegir el anticuerpo más apropiado según la especie del primario, la conjugación deseada, la clonalidad, la aplicación en la que se va a testar, etc…

    Los precios y la disponibilidad pueden consultarse igualmente en la parte superior de la datasheet de los productos. Si necesitas un presupuesto no dudes en hacérmelo saber para que te lo envíe. Además tenemos algún descuento para pedidos superiores a 5 productos, por lo que si vais a realizar un pedido de estas características te animaría a que nos contactaras primero.

    Espero que esta información sea de ayuda. Como te digo, para cualquier aclaración o más sugerencias, estaré encantada de echar una mano.
