Supplementary info

Activity summary

Cardiac Troponin T also known as cTnT or cardiac T plays an important role in muscle contraction. As a component of the troponin complex it binds to tropomyosin and facilitates the actin-myosin interaction in cardiac muscle fibers. cTnT has a molecular mass of approximately 39 kDa and is expressed mainly in cardiac tissue. Researchers identify it through various antibodies such as 1C11 and 1F11 ensuring precise detection and analysis.

Biological function summary

Cardiac troponin T is integral to the regulation of cardiac muscle contraction. It forms part of the troponin complex which also includes troponin I and troponin C and is involved in calcium-mediated control of cardiac muscle contraction. The presence of cTnT influences the interaction of actin and myosin essential for heart muscle contraction and relaxation. This ensures efficient cardiac function and response to physiological demands.

Pathways

Cardiac troponin T functions in the excitation-contraction coupling and the sarcomere organization pathways. Its role in these pathways establishes connections between electrical signals and mechanical contraction. It interacts closely with troponin I and troponin C facilitating the transmission of calcium's signal for cardiac muscle contraction. Proper function within these pathways is important for maintaining heart rhythm and muscle strength.

Associated diseases and disorders

Cardiac troponin T serves as a biomarker for cardiovascular conditions. Elevated levels in the blood indicate myocardial infarction or acute coronary syndrome providing vital information for diagnosis and management. Alterations in the expression of cTnT can also be associated with cardiomyopathies where it might interact with other cardiac proteins during disease progression. The study of anti-cardiac troponin antibodies including anti T aids in understanding these conditions and developing therapeutic strategies.

    Immunofluorescence staining of Cardiac Troponin T using ab8295 ioSkeletal Myocytes - Human iPSC derived cells ab277612, which were differentiated for 10 days post induction.

    The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 5 mins and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab8295 at 5 µg/mL and Anti-beta Tubulin antibody - Loading Control ab6046, rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed ab150088, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).


    Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown. Gamma is adjusted to 1.5 in all channels.


    The antibody ab8295 gave comparable results using MeOH fixation (100%, 5 min).

    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 citrate pH 6.0 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.
