Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-E Cadherin antibody [4A2] - BSA and Azide free (AB233766)
Immunofluorescence staining of E-Cadherin using ab231303 in wild-type A431 cells (top panel) and CDH1 knockout A431 cells (bottom panel). The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton-X-100 for 5 minutes 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 with ab231303 at 1.0 µg/mL and ab6046 at 1 µg/mL overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed (ab150117) (shown in green) and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed (ab150084) (shown in red), both at 1/1000. Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a confocal section is shown. This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS and sodium azide (ab231303).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-E Cadherin antibody [4A2] - BSA and Azide free (AB233766)
IHC image of E Cadherin staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human colon carcinoma* 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 (pH 6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab231303, 1 μg/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 hematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.
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.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-E Cadherin antibody [4A2] - BSA and Azide free (AB233766)
This data was developed using ab233766, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human colon carcinoma labelling E cadherin with ab231303 at a concentration of 0.1µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with a OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with DISCOVERY cell conditioning solution (CC1) 100°C, pH8.5 for 32mins.
ab231303 anti-E Cadherin antibody [4A2] was incubated for 16mins at 37°C. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.
Customers are encouraged to optimise antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentration, incubation times and temperature for best results in their own IHC assay workflow (automated and manual).

Western blot - Anti-E Cadherin antibody [4A2] - BSA and Azide free (AB233766)
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab231303). Western blot : Anti-CDH1 antibody [4A2] (ab231303) staining at 1 ug/ml, shown in green; Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891] (ab181602) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab231303 was shown to bind specifically to CDH1. A band was observed at 130, 110, 55 kDa in wild-type A431 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in CDH1 knockout cell line ab273747 (knockout cell lysate ab273781). To generate this image, wild-type and CDH1 knockout A431 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab231303).
This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 55 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before ab231303 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1ug/ml concentration and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Antibody binding was detected using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Biological function summary
E-Cadherin participates in establishing and maintaining adherens junctions which are vital for tissue structure. E-Cadherin operates as a core component of the cadherin-catenin complex which links the protein to the actin cytoskeleton. Through this linkage E-Cadherin plays an important role in signaling pathways that influence cellular growth and differentiation. The protein's ability to mediate intercellular connections also regulates cellular motility and supports basic aspects of cell behavior in epithelial tissues.
Pathways
E-Cadherin influences both the Wnt signaling pathway and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Within the Wnt signaling pathway E-Cadherin partners with Β-catenin a significant player in transcription regulation and cell signaling. Disruption in E-Cadherin's adhesive functionality can lead to increased Β-catenin availability affecting downstream transcriptional control. In the EMT process E-Cadherin loss characterizes an important step in which cells gain migratory and invasive properties typically seen during metastasis in cancer progression.
