Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-Collagen VI antibody [EPR17072] (AB200429)

IHC image of Collagen VI staining in a section of frozen normal rat kidney.

The section was fixed using 10% formaldehyde in 1XPBS for 10 minutes. No antigen retrieval step was performed prior to staining. Non-specific protein-protein interactions were then blocked in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100, 0.3M (w/v) glycine and 1% (w/v) BSA for 1h at room temperature. The section was then incubated overnight at +4°C in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 1% (w/v) BSA with ab200429 at 1/100 dilution (shown in green) and counterstained using ab195884, Rat monoclonal to Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 647), at 1/250 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Fluoromount®.

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

Supplementary information

Collagen VI also known as Collagen 6 is a type of collagen that plays an important role in the extracellular matrix. It consists of three different chains: α1(VI) α2(VI) and α3(VI) with a combined mass of approximately 140 kDa. This collagen type strongly associates with several tissues notably in skeletal muscle skin and the walls of blood vessels. Scientists often study collagen VI with specific collagen antibodies to understand its unique structural properties and its end which binds to other matrix components.
Biological function summary

Collagen VI contributes to structural integrity and cellular scaffolding within tissues. This protein is integral to the formation of microfibrillar networks part of a larger complex that connects the extracellular matrix to cells and other matrix components. Its protective role helps cells resist mechanical stress and the network provided by collagen VI powder stabilizes the tissue architecture. Additionally low endotoxin collagen is often preferable in research to minimize inflammatory responses during experimentation providing more accurate results.

Pathways

Collagen VI participates in extracellular matrix organization and mechanotransduction pathways. It functions alongside other proteins like collagen I and IV. In particular collagen VI interacts with cell surface receptors which influences cellular communication and signaling pathways. This interaction plays a role in transmitting mechanical signals that affect cellular behavior and function proving important for tissue maintenance and repair processes.

Mutations or malfunctions involving collagen VI can lead to significant clinical outcomes. It is prominently linked with disorders such as Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy and Bethlem myopathy both affecting muscle and connective tissue. These conditions often involve disruptions in the assembly or function of the collagen VI network. Additionally related proteins like collagen I and integrin proteins can influence the progression and severity of these disorders illustrating the interconnected nature of these extracellular elements.
