Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - Alexa Fluor® 555 Anti-Alpha-synuclein aggregate antibody [MJFR-14-6-4-2] (AB283737)

Immunofluorescence staining of Alpha-synuclein aggregates in a section of frozen human parkinson's substantia nigra*. The section was fixed using 10% formaldehyde in 1XPBS for 10 minutes. No antigen retrieval step was performed prior to staining. Staining performed on a Leica BOND. The section was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab283737 at 1/100 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.

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

Alpha-synuclein aggregates are critical in the study of neurobiology. These aggregates form by accumulation of alpha-synuclein a protein that exists mostly in neural tissues. Also known as SNCA this protein has a mass of approximately 14 kDa. Researchers frequently find alpha-synuclein in presynaptic terminals of neurons but expression also occurs in the nucleus and cytoplasm of neuronal cells. This protein has a notable interaction with lipid membranes indicating its role in synaptic vesicle regulation.
Biological function summary

Alpha-synuclein manages several cellular processes most notably in neurotransmitter release and vesicle recycling. It does not work alone; it often forms complexes with other proteins like synaptobrevin-2 of the SNARE complex. The formation of these complexes allows for the proper functioning of synaptic vesicles. Alteration in alpha-synuclein's normal function through aggregation disrupts these processes which underlies many neural complications.

Pathways

Many neuronal functions depend on alpha-synuclein's participation in synaptic vesicle pathways. Key pathways include the dopamine metabolic pathway where alpha-synuclein regulates dopamine release. The protein interacts with other synaptic proteins like the SNARE proteins potentially affecting protein kinase pathways. Abnormal aggregation impacts these pathways which can propagate cellular stress and contribute to cellular degeneration.

Alpha-synuclein aggregation correlates strongly with Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia. In these conditions aggregates form Lewy bodies protein clusters within neurons that impair their function and encourage neural degradation. The protein interacts with structural proteins like ubiquitin. Ubiquitin involvement highlights the importance of degradation pathways in these disorders as impaired proteostasis due to aggregated alpha-synuclein exacerbates disease progression.

Target data

The protein expressed by the SNCA gene is involved in various synaptic activities, including the regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. As a monomer, it enhances synaptic vesicle exocytosis through vesicle priming, fusion, and dilation of exocytotic fusion pores. Mechanistically, it increases local Ca(2+) release, which is crucial for ATP-induced exocytosis. In its multimeric membrane-bound form, SNCA acts as a molecular chaperone, assisting in the folding of synaptic fusion components known as SNAREs at the presynaptic plasma membrane, in conjunction with cysteine string protein-alpha/DNAJC5, a function that is vital for maintaining normal SNARE-complex assembly during aging. Additionally, SNCA plays a role in dopamine neurotransmission regulation by associating with the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and modulating its activity.
