Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Bcl-2 antibody [E17] (AB32124)
Immunohistochemical analysis of Human salivary glands taken from patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome, staining Bcl-2 with unpurified ab32124.
Antigen retrieval was performed via heat mediation in a citrate buffer (pH 6). Sections were blocked using 2% BSA, 10% normal serum and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100) for one hour at room temperature. An Alexa Fluor® 594-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG was used as the secondary antibody.

We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Biological function summary
The role of Bcl-2 extends to maintaining cell survival and balancing apoptotic signals. It functions as an anti-apoptotic molecule within the cell primarily involved in forming complexes with pro-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family like Bax and Bak. These interactions prevent mitochondrial membrane permeabilization which is an important step in apoptotic signal transduction. As an important regulator of apoptosis Bcl-2 helps in cellular homeostasis and appropriate immune responses under physiological conditions.
Pathways
Bcl-2 plays a critical role in the intrinsic or mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. Within this pathway Bcl-2 interacts with other proteins such as cytochrome c and APAF-1 to inhibit apoptosis. This pathway involves a network of Bcl-2 family proteins where Bcl-2's anti-apoptotic role counteracts the pro-apoptotic activity of proteins like Bax. These interactions help fine-tune the apoptotic response to various internal stimuli maintaining cellular integrity and function.
