Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-Dystrophin antibody [EPR21189] (AB218198)
Multiplex immunohistochemistry analysis of formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded Mouse skeletal muscle tissue staining Slow Skeletal Myosin Heavy chain with ab234431 at a 1/2500 dilution, A2BP1 with ab254413 at 1/2000 (0.26 µg/ml) dilution and Dystrophin with ab218198 at 1/5000 ( 0.110 µg/ml) dilution.
Panel A : merged staining of anti-Slow Skeletal Myosin Heavy chain (green; Opal™520), anti-A2BP1 (gray; Opal™570) and anti-Dystrophin (magenta; Opal™690) on mouse skeletal muscle.
Panel B : anti-Slow Skeletal Myosin Heavy chain staining slow type fibers in mouse skeletal muscle.
Panel C : anti-A2BP1 staining nucleus in mouse skeletal muscle.
Panel D : anti-Dystrophin staining membrane in mouse skeletal muscle.
Nuclear DNA was labeled with DAPI (shown in blue).
The section was incubated in three rounds of staining : in the order of ab234431, ab254413 and ab218198 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.

Biological function summary
Dystrophin acts as an important component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex. This complex stabilizes the muscle cell membrane by linking actin filaments within the cytoskeleton to proteins in the extracellular matrix. The absence or malfunctioning of dystrophin disrupts this connection leading to increased susceptibility to damage during muscle contraction. This is especially evident in tissues where the protein is abundantly present.
Pathways
Dystrophin is integral to the structural integrity pathway in muscle cells. It works alongside proteins like dystroglycan and sarcoglycan forming a multiprotein complex that ensures cell membrane stability during muscle contractions. The proper functioning of the dystrophin complex is also linked to calcium signaling pathways highlighting its role in cellular signaling mechanisms.
