Western blot - Mouse ARC knockout Neuro-2a cell line (AB280071)

False colour image of Western blot : Anti-Arc antibody [EPR18950] staining at 1/500 dilution shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution shown in red. In Western blot ab183183 was shown to bind specifically to Arc. A band was observed at 45 kDa in wild-type Neuro-2a cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in arc knockout cell line ab280071 (knockout cell lysate ab280130). To generate this image wild-type and arc knockout Neuro-2a cell lysates were analysed. First samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in fluorescent western blot (TBS-based) blocking solution before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Handling procedures

Initial handling guidelines

Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.

1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water for bath approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method. Based on cell count, seed cells in an appropriate cell culture flask at a density of 4x105 - 5x105 cells/mL(for initial passages it is recomended to culture the cells in the higher range of recomended seeding density). Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Cultures should be monitored daily.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • A guide seeding density of 2x105 cells/mL is recommended.
Culture medium

EMEM + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Supplementary information

The Arc protein also known as Activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein weighs approximately 45 kDa. This protein expresses mainly in the brain specifically in the neurons. It is particularly active in the synaptic regions where it plays a role in synaptic plasticity. The Arc protein belongs to an emerging class of proteins that show similarities with viral proteins. Its structural and functional properties help facilitate the dynamic regulation of synapses and neuronal activity.
Biological function summary

The Arc protein influences synaptic plasticity and memory formation. It does not operate alone; instead it interacts within complexes that regulate synaptic strength. These complexes contain other proteins critical for actin cytoskeleton remodeling which impacts synaptic efficacy. Through these interactions Arc supports the internalization of AMPA receptors playing a role in long-term depression (LTD) and long-term potentiation (LTP) of synapses essential mechanisms for learning and memory.

Pathways

The Arc protein forms integral parts of the synaptic signaling pathways. It connects with the BDNF-TrkB signaling pathway which is important for neuronal development and synaptic modulation. Arc also relates to the mTOR signaling pathway which governs cellular growth and protein synthesis. Through these pathways Arc interacts with proteins like Neuro2a and SynGAP highlighting its comprehensive role in synaptic regulation and plasticity.

Arc protein has a connection to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. Researchers found altered Arc expression and function in the brains of affected individuals. These disorders show a link to disrupted synaptic plasticity where Arc plays a significant role. Arc connects to other proteins like Neuro-2a and Caspase-3 in the pathology of these conditions indicating potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
