Left panel : with primary antibody at 1 ug/ml. Right panel : isotype control.
Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature. Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3-in-1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 minutes. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS), then incubated with primary antibody for 20 minutes, and detected with Dako Envision Flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.

ICC/IF image of ab28237 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 100% Methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal Goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab28237, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Supplementary information

Calpain small subunit 1 also known as CSS1 or CAPNS1 is a small protein with a molecular mass of approximately 28 kDa. CSS1 forms an essential part of the calpain protease system which includes both the catalytic large and regulatory small subunits. CSS1 is important for the stability and function of the calpain holoenzyme. It expresses in various tissues including brain muscle and kidney suggesting its widespread functional role in cellular processes.
Biological function summary

Several cellular processes involve the calpain protease system to which Calpain small subunit 1 belongs. CSS1 acts by regulating the proteolytic activity of calpain an enzyme complex critical for cellular signaling cytoskeletal remodeling and apoptosis. The small subunit plays an important role within the calpain complex facilitating the proper folding and activation of the catalytic subunit. This process ensures that calpain conforms to appropriate physiological conditions to exert its regulatory functions.

Pathways

The involvement of Calpain small subunit 1 in intracellular signaling pathways is significant. CSS1 plays a role in the calcium-dependent proteolytic pathway helping modulate the activity of proteins such as calpastatin the endogenous inhibitor of calpains. Calpain activity impacts many pathways including the cell cycle and apoptotic pathways. Through these pathways CSS1 contributes to cell proliferation differentiation and programmed cell death highlighting its multifunctional role in cellular homeostasis.

Calpain small subunit 1 has a notable association with certain pathological conditions. Dysregulation of calpain activity due to alterations in CSS1 can contribute to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and muscular disorders such as limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. In Alzheimer's disease abnormal calpain activation affects tau protein processing linking CSS1 indirectly with tau-related pathologies. Moreover in muscular disorders calpain plays a role in muscle fiber degradation and repair where anomalies in CSS1 may impair muscle integrity and function.
