Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-AACT antibody (AB9374)
Human normal skin. Staining is mainly membrane-bound and cytoplasmic. Left panel : with primary antibody at 2 ug/ml. Right panel : negative control. Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature : sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffers citrate EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for rabbit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.

Biological function summary
Alpha-1-antichymotrypsin plays a role in regulating protease activity to maintain tissue integrity. AACT forms part of a complex that involves other protease inhibitors and enzymes contributing to the balance of protein breakdown and regeneration. Its presence in the extracellular matrix highlights its structural and protective functions supporting cells against enzyme-mediated degradation.
Pathways
Alpha-1-antichymotrypsin takes part in inflammatory and immune response pathways. It interacts within the acute phase response pathway a system activated during inflammatory events. This protein's relationship with other protease inhibitors such as alpha-1-antitrypsin accentuates its role in controlling proteolytic enzymes that could otherwise propagate unchecked inflammation and tissue damage.
