Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CACNB2 antibody [N8B/1] (AB93606)

IHC image of ab93606 staining in Human Heart formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM 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 ab93606, 5µg/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.

Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab93606 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab93606, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

Supplementary information

CACNB2 also known as the calcium channel voltage-dependent beta 2 subunit is a part of the high voltage-gated calcium channel complex. The protein encoded by CACNB2 gene has a mass of approximately 66 kDa. It exists within many tissues including cardiac tissue skeletal muscle and the brain. This protein plays a role in modulating the activity of the channel by interacting with both alpha and gamma subunits influencing calcium ion influx.
Biological function summary

CACNB2 participates in controlling calcium channel activity which is significant for various cellular processes. It forms a part of the channel complex that helps stabilize the arrangement and activity of the pore-forming alpha subunit. Through this CACNB2 affects processes such as muscle contraction neurotransmitter release and gene expression. Interactions of CACNB2 subunits help regulate the amplitude and kinetics of calcium currents important for cellular communication.

Pathways

CACNB2 regulates the L-type calcium channel pathway integral to the excitation-contraction coupling in cardiac and muscle cells. It associates with other calcium channel subunits like CACNA1C modulating calcium channel functionality. In the MAPK signaling pathway CACNB2 indirectly influences cellular responses to various stimuli. This protein provides essential inputs to these pathways by affecting calcium ion flow into cells which is critical for their activation and operation.

CACNB2 exhibits a connection to conditions such as cardiac arrhythmias and epilepsy. Its role in calcium channel functioning relates to arrhythmogenic activities in cardiac cells when abnormalities in ion flow occur. There is also evidence linking CACNB2 to epilepsy where disrupted calcium flow affects neuronal firing patterns. Other related proteins like CACNA1C also play a part in these disorders highlighting the complex interactions between voltage-gated calcium channel components in disease mechanisms.
