Immunofluorescent staining of PC-12 cells (fixed in 4% PFA, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X 100) using purified ab32127 at a dilution of 1/50. An Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary at a dilution of 1/500 and the cells were counter stained with DAPI. The negative control is shown in the bottom right hand panel - for the negative control, Alex Fluor® 594 goat anti-mouse was used at a dilution of 1/500.

Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab238135 observed at 75 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) observed at 37 kDa. Secondary : Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776), 1/20000 dilution.

ab238135 was shown to react with PSD95 in wild-type SH-SY5Y cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in DLG4 knockout cell line ab280043 (DLG4 knockout cell lysate ab280102). Wild-type SH-SY5Y and DLG4 knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab238135 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 2000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.

Synaptophysin Neurofilament heavy polypeptide (NF-H) PSD95 MAP2 and NeuN are essential proteins in neuronal tissues. Synaptophysin a glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 38 kDa is expressed mainly in presynaptic vesicles. Neurofilament heavy polypeptide or NF-H is a component of the neuronal cytoskeleton with a mass of about 200 kDa found throughout neurons. PSD95 also called DLG4 is an important scaffold protein in synaptic junctions. MAP2 known for its expression in dendrites is vital for microtubule stabilization. NeuN also called Fox-3 is a well-known marker for mature neurons with high expression in the nuclei of post-mitotic neurons.
Biological function summary

These proteins play important roles in neuronal development structure and function. Synaptophysin participates in synaptic vesicle cycling aiding neurotransmitter release. NF-H as part of the neurofilament complex contributes to axonal caliber and stability. PSD95 organizes protein complexes at postsynaptic sites facilitating synaptic signaling. MAP2 stabilizes microtubules essential for dendritic morphology and transport. NeuN marking indicates post-mitotic functionally mature neurons useful in identifying neuronal populations through immunohistochemistry.

Pathways

These proteins integrate into critical signaling cascades in the nervous system. Synaptophysin and PSD95 play roles in synaptic transmission pathways influencing neurotransmitter release and postsynaptic receptor clustering. NF-H and MAP2 fit into the cytoskeletal dynamics pathway affecting neuronal branching and plasticity. NeuN serves as a neuronal marker particularly highlighting neurons in mature neural circuits. Through these pathways PSD95 often interacts with NMDA receptors while Synaptophysin forms complexes with SNARE proteins.

Alterations in these proteins link to several neurological conditions. Synaptophysin changes associate with Alzheimer's disease where synaptic dysfunction occurs. NF-H accumulation relates to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) contributing to axonal degeneration. In both cases proteins such as MAPT (tau) and TDP-43 interplay with these alterations. Synaptic and cytoskeletal dysfunction in these diseases underlines the importance of biomarkers like NeuN and MAP2 in clinical research and diagnostics.

Product protocols

Target data

The exact function of MAP2 is unknown but MAPs may stabilize the microtubules against depolymerization. They also seem to have a stiffening effect on microtubules.
