  • General notes

    Type III collagen, [a1(III)]3 ,is an approx. 300 kDa molecule, found predominantly in skin, blood vessels, liver, placenta, tongue, and thymus. Collagen type III forms cofibrils with type I and/or V collagens in a number of tissues of mesenchymal origin, such as skin, tendon, ligaments, and bone. This collagen type is involved, directly or indirectly in several genetic diseases, including Ehlers-Danlos type IV disease.

  • Function

    Collagen type III occurs in most soft connective tissues along with type I collagen.
  • Involvement in disease

    Defects in COL3A1 are a cause of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type 3 (EDS3) [MIM:130020]; also known as benign hypermobility syndrome. EDS is a connective tissue disorder characterized by hyperextensible skin, atrophic cutaneous scars due to tissue fragility and joint hyperlaxity. EDS3 is a form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome characterized by marked joint hyperextensibility without skeletal deformity.
    Defects in COL3A1 are the cause of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type 4 (EDS4) [MIM:130050]. EDS is a connective tissue disorder characterized by hyperextensible skin, atrophic cutaneous scars due to tissue fragility and joint hyperlaxity. EDS4 is the most severe form of the disease. It is characterized by the joint and dermal manifestations as in other forms of the syndrome, characteristic facial features (acrogeria) in most patients, and by proneness to spontaneous rupture of bowel and large arteries. The vascular complications may affect all anatomical areas.
    Defects in COL3A1 are a cause of susceptibility to aortic aneurysm abdominal (AAA) [MIM:100070]. AAA is a common multifactorial disorder characterized by permanent dilation of the abdominal aorta, usually due to degenerative changes in the aortic wall. Histologically, AAA is characterized by signs of chronic inflammation, destructive remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and depletion of vascular smooth muscle cells.
  • Sequence similarities

    Question

    Thank you for your detailed answer about the anti-collagen III antibody ab6310.

    That's a pity indeed that the validity on pig was initially a mistake but these things happen. I am a regular customer who appreciate very much your policy about customer feedback and reviewing, and I'll submit an abreview about IHC-Fr in pig skin after performing the few more tests discussed.

    In return, to answer your questions:

    - From what I've read and optimized so far on frozen sections with different kind of antibodies, the antigen retrieval step is usually not needed as the fixation time is very short.

    I don't have any pronase, and I'm not sure it's worth for me buying some only for a test, with no insurance the antibody will work. I can try fixing in acetone instead or formalin see if it changes something.

    - I will follow your advice and block with only donkey serum or BSA but not both at the same time

    - The secondary antibody works well, I've written reviews about ab90395 (collagen I) and ab6328 (fibronectin EDA), where I used the same anti-mouse Cy2 secondary antibody on similar pig skin frozen sections with good results.

    - I have performed the procedure on a couple of separate samples, and I did it twice on independent batches before contacting the technical service, to ensure the problem was from the antibody and not from my experimental procedure.

    I’d like to try the reference ab23445, as I also would like to do some western blotting. If this second one doesn't work, will I still be eligible to try the other one, or for a refund?

    Thank you very much

    Answer

    Thank you foryour understanding and cooperation. The details provided enable us to closely monitor the quality of our products.

    I hope the suggestions may proove useful with ab6310. It may be worth trying citrate antigen retreival with the PFA fixationif you have the reagents. It is unusual to use antigen retreival with IHC-Fr, however laboratory tests do indicate that this can sometimes improve the results.

    I am sorry this product did not perform as stated on the datasheet and for the inconvenience this has caused. As requested, I have issuedthe alternativefree of charge replacement of ab23445with the order number 1132685.

    To check the status of the order please contact our Customer Service team and reference this number.

    Please note that this free of charge replacement vial is also covered by our Abpromise guarantee. The ab23445 is tested and covered by the guarantee for IHC-Fr, WB and pig samples. Should you still be experiencing difficulties, or if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to let us know.

    I wish you the best of luck with your research.

    Question

    Hello,

    I have purchased the anti-collagen III antibody ab6310 a few months ago (order #1076197).

    However, after several attemps to optimise the experimental conditions, I haven't managed to make it work properly in IHC-Fr on pig skin cryosections



    Here are the conditions I have used for IHC-Fr:

    Pig skin cryosections, 12um thick, embedded in OCT

    Fixation in either formaldehyde 4% in PBS, or neutral buffer formalin for 10min at RT

    Permeabilisation in PBS 0.1% triton for 10min at RT

    Blocking in PBS, 5% donkey serum, 1%BSA, 0.01% tween for 1h at RT

    Incubation of primary antibody ab6310, diluted 1/500 in PBS , 1% donkey serum, 0.1%BSA, 0.01% tween overnight at 4C

    Secondary antibody: Cy2 donkey anti mouse 1/100 for 1h at RT

    Mounting in Prolong mounting media

    (this protocol worked fine for the collagen I antibody ab90395 for which I submitted a review)

    Results: No positive staining was observed in the dermis, either in unwounded skin or in the wound bed (where there should be even more Collagen III).

    Another of your anti-col III antibodies ab7778 displays a strong positive staining in human dermis in IHC-P, that’s the kind of signal I was expected.

    Could you tell me the experimental conditions you have been using to validate it in IHC-Fr (I was surprised to read a line about some antigen retrieval with pronase, which is usually not necessary with frozen sections, but maybe that’s needed here. However nothing is precised on the first page, in the applications section. Would you have specific technical advices to help me make it work?

    Also, in your scientific support section about this antibody, I have just read that this antibody wasn’t actually experimentally validated on pig samples but only predicted to work, based on sequence similarity. I wish I had seen it before so I could have at least asked for the testing offer while purchasing it.

    Have you got any feedback of these customers who were working on pig tissue, did they manage to make it work?

    I also saw that you offered them to try other antibodies references that may work on pig, have you got more data on these other antibodies?



    I look forward to hearing from you

    Best regards

    Asked on Jul 23 2012

    Answer

    Thank you for taking the time to contact us with this information. I am sorry to hear you have had difficulty obtaining satisfactory results from this antibody.

    I have investigated our records for ab6310 and have contacted our source for this antibody. Regrettably,I can confirm that this antibody has not been tested on pig. I am not sure why this information was originally on our datasheet. The datasheet has been updated with the correct information and I sincerely apologize for any confusion. The quality of our antibodies and datasheets is very important to us, as is any feedback and data we receive. It is regrettable that the information we had on this particular antibody was not of the standard both we and our customers expect from our products.

    In this case I would be pleased to provide you with an immediatecredit note, free alternative replacement or refund.

    Alternatively, as the immunogen for the antibody has high alignment to the pig protein, you may like to consider trying a few suggestions first that I hope may help improve the results.I would also appreciate if you can confirm some further details, to help with our quality monitoring:

    1. As requested, we have some information regarding the antigen retreival: ab6310 is only tested on unfixed frozen sections in-house, and the antigen retrieval method is 0.1% pronase for 10 minutes. However we also have feedback from other researchers using this antibody successfully in IHC on FFPE tissue, and heat-mediated antigen retrieval for 20 minutes in pH 6 citrate buffer should work as well.

    2. We recommend not to mix blocking agents in one experiment. Try using 2% serum or 2% BSA alone to block.

    3. Is the current vial of secondary antibody working well with other primary antibodies?

    4. Try some fresh samples.

    I hope this information is helpful. We do have the following collagen III antibodies that are tested in IHC-Fr and pig. You may wish to consider trying one of these as a replacement:
