Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Biotin Anti-C3/C3b antibody [EPR19394] (AB322300)

IHC image of C3/C3b staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded rat testis.

Performed on a Leica BONDTM system. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20mins, before blocking of endogenous biotin using ab64212. The section was then incubated with ab322300 at 0.5μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated ABC system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

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.

Supplementary information

Complement component 3 (C3) commonly known as C3 complement is a central protein in the complement system which plays a significant role in immune response. C3b a fragment of C3 is produced when C3 undergoes cleavage. C3 is a large protein with a mass of approximately 185 kDa. The liver primarily secretes C3 into the bloodstream. It circulates in the plasma and is found in high concentration making it one of the most abundant components of the complement system.
Biological function summary

Complement component C3 forms part of the innate immune system by promoting opsonization which enhances phagocytosis of pathogens. C3b binds to pathogens' surfaces facilitating their recognition by phagocytes. C3 as part of a complex with C3 convertase also has a role in amplifying the activation of the complement cascade. The proteolytic cleavage of C3 into C3b and C3a leads to the activation of other components forming the membrane attack complex and orchestrating inflammation.

Pathways

The complement component C3 functions within both the classical and alternative complement pathways. It acts as a convergence point where the complement activation pathways meet. C3 is activated into C3b and C3a which are key to amplifying the cascade. Furthermore C3 interacts with proteins such as factor B and factor D in the alternative pathway and C4 and C2 in the classical pathway facilitating the formation of C3 convertase necessary for pathway progression.

Complement C3 shows associations with immune-related and inflammatory diseases. Deficiencies or malfunctions of complement C3 can lead to increased susceptibility to infections due to impaired opsonization and clearance of pathogens. Additionally overactivation of the complement system involving C3 can contribute to autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Other proteins linked to these diseases include C4 in lupus and factor H in age-related macular degeneration which controls complement pathway activation.

Target data

Precursor of non-enzymatic components of the classical, alternative, lectin and GZMK complement pathways, which consist in a cascade of proteins that leads to phagocytosis and breakdown of pathogens and signaling that strengthens the adaptive immune system.. Complement C3b. Non-enzymatic component of C5 convertase (PubMed : 28264884, PubMed : 31507604, PubMed : 3653927, PubMed : 3897448). Generated following cleavage by C3 convertase, it covalently attaches to the surface of pathogens, where it acts as an opsonin that marks the surface of antigens for removal (PubMed : 28264884, PubMed : 31507604, PubMed : 3653927, PubMed : 3897448, PubMed : 833545, PubMed : 8349625). Complement C3b binds covalently via its reactive thioester, to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates (PubMed : 6903192). Together with complement C4b, it then recruits the serine protease complement C2b to form the C5 convertase, which cleaves and activate C5, the next component of the complement pathways (PubMed : 12878586, PubMed : 18204047, PubMed : 2387864). In the alternative complement pathway, recruits the serine protease CFB to form the C5 convertase that cleaves and activates C5 (PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279).. C3a anaphylatoxin. Mediator of local inflammatory process released following cleavage by C3 convertase (PubMed : 6968751, PubMed : 37169960, PubMed : 37852260). Acts by binding to its receptor, C3AR1, activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling, promoting the phosphorylation, ARRB2-mediated internalization and endocytosis of C3AR1 (PubMed : 8702752, PubMed : 37169960, PubMed : 37852260). C3a anaphylatoxin stimulates the activation of immune cells such as mast cells and basophilic leukocytes to release inflammation agents, such as cytokines, chemokines and histamine, which promote inflammation development (PubMed : 23383423). Also acts as potent chemoattractant for the migration of macrophages and neutrophils to the inflamed tissues, resulting in neutralization of the inflammatory triggers by multiple ways, such as phagocytosis and generation of reactive oxidants (PubMed : 23383423, PubMed : 342601, PubMed : 5778786).. Acylation stimulating protein. Adipogenic hormone that stimulates triglyceride synthesis and glucose transport in adipocytes, regulating fat storage and playing a role in postprandial triglyceride clearance (PubMed : 10432298, PubMed : 15833747, PubMed : 16333141, PubMed : 19615750, PubMed : 2909530, PubMed : 8376604, PubMed : 9059512). Appears to stimulate triglyceride synthesis via activation of the PLC, MAPK and AKT signaling pathways (PubMed : 16333141). Acts by binding to its receptor, C5AR2, activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling, promoting the phosphorylation, ARRB2-mediated internalization and endocytosis of C5AR2 (PubMed : 11773063, PubMed : 12540846, PubMed : 19615750). In contrast to C3a anaphylatoxin peptide, does not show pro-inflammatory activity (PubMed : 37852260).. C3-beta-c. Acts as a chemoattractant for neutrophils in chronic inflammation.
