Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Amyloid Fibril antibody [mOC78] - BSA and Azide free (AB251428)

This data was developed using ab205341, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.

IHC image of Amyloid Fibrillin staining in Human Brain Alzheimer formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section*, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab205341, 1μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

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

Note : Antibody reactivity was assessed using a dot blot, which is a non-quantitative method that maintains the native conformation of beta Amyloid. beta Amyloid 1-40 and 1-42 peptides underwent the following aggregation conditions before being spotted onto a nitrocellulose membrane and detected using ab205341 :

Monomers : 0.3 mg of beta Amyloid peptide was dissolved in 30 μl 100 mM NaOH and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. It was then diluted with 970 μl of 1% SDS and boiled for five minutes.

Oligomers : 0.3 mg of beta Amyloid peptide was dissolved in 30 μl 100 mM NaOH and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. It was then diluted with 970 μl of 10 mM phosphate buffer pH 7.4 containing 0.02% sodium azide and incubated at room temperature for four days.

Product details

ab251428 is the carrier-free version of ab205341.

This antibody was developed as part of a collaboration between Abcam and Professor Charles Glabe, UC Irvine.

ab251428 (mOC78) recognizes a conformation-dependent and aggregation-specific discontinuous epitope of beta Amyloid that maps to segments 8-11 (SGYE), 18-24 (VFFAEDV) and 26-32 (SNKGAII) (Hatami et al 2014, PMID: 25281743). It also recognizes a-synuclein and islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) fibrils but not monomers on dot blots. It recognizes a broad range of bands from monomer to high molecular weight with samples of Aß40 and Aß42 on western blots (Hatami et al 2014, PMID: 25281743). Immunoreactivity on western blots is not changed by boiling the membrane. mOC78 stains plaques and a unique population of intraneuronal and intranuclear amyloid and also stains the center of nascent neuritic plaques where it colocalizes with neuronal chromatin (Pensalfani et al 2014, PMID: 25092575).

Supplementary information

Amyloid fibrils alternatively named fibrillar amyloid are insoluble fibrous protein aggregates resulting from the abnormal folding of proteins. They compose primarily of beta-sheet structures which promote stability and rigidity. Amyloid fibrils are frequently associated with proteins like Aβ and tau known for their high molecular mass. Researchers observe these structures in various tissues where they exhibit significant resilience to both chemical and enzymatic degradation.
Biological function summary

The misfolding and accumulation of proteins into amyloid fibrils prove disruptive within cells. These aggregates often form as part of complex protein assemblies and interfere with normal cellular functions. This disruption further leads to cellular dysfunction and death. While commonly observed in neuronal cells where they are linked to neurodegenerative conditions amyloid fibrils can also appear in other tissues and organs suggesting multi-systemic implications.

Pathways

Scientists recognize amyloid fibrils for their involvement in the amyloidogenic pathways. These pathways often lead to the generation and accumulation of misfolded proteins. The amyloid precursor protein (APP) and presenilins play important roles in pathway processes associated with amyloid fibrils. In addition the fibrillar structures can influence calcium dysregulation and oxidative stress contributing to altered cellular homeostasis.

Amyloid fibrils are strongly associated with Alzheimer's disease and systemic amyloidosis. Within Alzheimer's disease amyloid fibrils formed by Aβ peptides contribute to plaque formation a hallmark of the condition. Furthermore interactions with tau protein exacerbate neurofibrillary tangles compounding neurodegenerative effects. In systemic amyloidosis different precursor proteins undergo fibrillogenesis resulting in widespread organ dysfunction and highlighting the pathogenic potential of amyloid fibrils beyond neurological tissues.

Target data

Functions as a cell surface receptor and performs physiological functions on the surface of neurons relevant to neurite growth, neuronal adhesion and axonogenesis. Interaction between APP molecules on neighboring cells promotes synaptogenesis (PubMed : 25122912). Involved in cell mobility and transcription regulation through protein-protein interactions. Can promote transcription activation through binding to APBB1-KAT5 and inhibits Notch signaling through interaction with Numb. Couples to apoptosis-inducing pathways such as those mediated by G(o) and JIP. Inhibits G(o) alpha ATPase activity (By similarity). Acts as a kinesin I membrane receptor, mediating the axonal transport of beta-secretase and presenilin 1 (By similarity). By acting as a kinesin I membrane receptor, plays a role in axonal anterograde transport of cargo towards synapses in axons (PubMed : 17062754, PubMed : 23011729). Involved in copper homeostasis/oxidative stress through copper ion reduction. In vitro, copper-metallated APP induces neuronal death directly or is potentiated through Cu(2+)-mediated low-density lipoprotein oxidation. Can regulate neurite outgrowth through binding to components of the extracellular matrix such as heparin and collagen I and IV. The splice isoforms that contain the BPTI domain possess protease inhibitor activity. Induces a AGER-dependent pathway that involves activation of p38 MAPK, resulting in internalization of amyloid-beta peptide and leading to mitochondrial dysfunction in cultured cortical neurons. Provides Cu(2+) ions for GPC1 which are required for release of nitric oxide (NO) and subsequent degradation of the heparan sulfate chains on GPC1.. Amyloid-beta peptides are lipophilic metal chelators with metal-reducing activity. Bind transient metals such as copper, zinc and iron. In vitro, can reduce Cu(2+) and Fe(3+) to Cu(+) and Fe(2+), respectively. Amyloid-beta peptides bind to lipoproteins and apolipoproteins E and J in the CSF and to HDL particles in plasma, inhibiting metal-catalyzed oxidation of lipoproteins. Promotes both tau aggregation and TPK II-mediated phosphorylation. Interaction with overexpressed HADH2 leads to oxidative stress and neurotoxicity. Also binds GPC1 in lipid rafts.. Amyloid-beta protein 42. More effective reductant than amyloid-beta protein 40. May activate mononuclear phagocytes in the brain and elicit inflammatory responses.. Appicans elicit adhesion of neural cells to the extracellular matrix and may regulate neurite outgrowth in the brain.. The gamma-CTF peptides as well as the caspase-cleaved peptides, including C31, are potent enhancers of neuronal apoptosis.
