Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-Collagen VII antibody [EPR27012-157] (AB309143)

Multiplex immunohistochemistry analysis of formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded human skin staining Collagen VII with ab309143 at a 1/100 dilution, ab307969 anti-Aquaporin 3 used at 1/5000 dilution and ab221155 anti-FLG used at a 1/1000 dilution.

Panel A : merged staining of anti-Collagen VII (green; Opal™520), anti-Aquaporin 3 (magenta; Opal™690) and anti-FLG (gray; Opal™570) on human skin.

Panel B : anti-Collagen VII staining basement membrane in human skin.

Panel C : anti-Aquaporin 3 staining squamous epithelium in human skin.

Panel D : anti-FLG staining maturing squamous cells in human skin.

Nuclear DNA was labeled with DAPI (shown in blue).

The section was incubated in three rounds of staining : in the order of ab309143, ab307969 and ab221155 for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope.

Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution2) for 20 mins.

Supplementary information

Collagen VII also known as collagen type VII or collagen 7 is an important structural component of the extracellular matrix. It measures approximately 290 kDa in mass. Researchers identified it chiefly in stratified squamous epithelia and the basement membrane zone of the skin. Collagen VII plays a mechanical role as anchoring fibrils maintaining skin integrity by attaching the dermal tissue to the epidermal basement membrane. In marmoset dermal tissue similar functions are observed indicating a conserved role in primates.
Biological function summary

Collagen VII forms part of a larger complex known as anchoring fibrils. These fibrils play an essential role in providing structural support and maintaining mechanical stability of tissues. The protein enhances the connection between the epidermis and dermis preventing separation between these layers. Its presence signifies the maintenance of tissue integrity and resilience critical for normal skin function.

Pathways

Collagen type VII interacts within the epidermal basement membrane zone part of the broader extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling pathway. It collaborates with other ECM components like collagen type I and collagen type III which all contribute to skin strength and elasticity. The interplay between these collagens ensures the continuous renewal and repair of skin tissues essential for wound healing and overall skin health.

Collagen VII mutations or deficiencies lead to dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) a genetic skin condition characterized by severe blistering. This disorder arises from defective anchoring fibril formation causing skin layers to separate easily. The interplay between collagen VII and other collagens like collagen type I becomes compromised exacerbating tissue fragility. Understanding these interactions provides insight into targeted treatments and management strategies for DEB.
