Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab75838 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab75838, 1/50 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (ab96899) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

ab75838 staining GABA B Receptor 2/GABBR2 in Rat Postnatal (P15) Cerebellum by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 hour at 25°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a 10mM citrate buffer, pH6. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/400 in PBS with 2% donkey serum) for 16 hours at 25°C. An Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated Donkey anti-rabbit, polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.

IHC and confocal microscopy for GABA B Receptor 2/GABBR2 (GABAB2) in the postnatal rat cerebellum. (A, C, E, G) Negative control by omission of the primary antibody at 10, 20, 40 and 60X. (B-B'', D-D'', F-F'', H-H'') Immunolabeling for GABAB2 (green) and/or the calcium-binding protein calbindin (red) at 10, 20, 40 and 60X. (I-K) Zooms of the insets shown in F-F''. Specific signal for GABAB2 is mainly observed in the molecular layer (ML) and internal granular layer (IGL) of the cerebellar grey matter. Purkinje cells (PkL) are enriched in GABAB2 especially at the surface of the dendritic trees (white arrowheads) oriented towards the ML. Golgi II cells (yellow arrowhead) located in the IGL are also positive for GABAB2. EGL : external granular layer. n : calbindin-positive nucleus of a Purkinje cell. Orange arrowhead : GABAB2-immunoreactive granular cell in the IGL. WM : white matter. An Olympus FV 1000 confocal microscope was used and images were processed with Adobe Photoshop CS4.

Target data

Component of a heterodimeric G-protein coupled receptor for GABA, formed by GABBR1 and GABBR2 (PubMed : 15617512, PubMed : 18165688, PubMed : 22660477, PubMed : 24305054, PubMed : 9872316, PubMed : 9872744). Within the heterodimeric GABA receptor, only GABBR1 seems to bind agonists, while GABBR2 mediates coupling to G proteins (PubMed : 18165688). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase (PubMed : 10075644, PubMed : 10773016, PubMed : 24305054). Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase, stimulates phospholipase A2, activates potassium channels, inactivates voltage-dependent calcium-channels and modulates inositol phospholipid hydrolysis (PubMed : 10075644, PubMed : 10773016, PubMed : 10906333, PubMed : 9872744). Plays a critical role in the fine-tuning of inhibitory synaptic transmission (PubMed : 22660477, PubMed : 9872744). Pre-synaptic GABA receptor inhibits neurotransmitter release by down-regulating high-voltage activated calcium channels, whereas postsynaptic GABA receptor decreases neuronal excitability by activating a prominent inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) conductance that underlies the late inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (PubMed : 10075644, PubMed : 22660477, PubMed : 9872316, PubMed : 9872744). Not only implicated in synaptic inhibition but also in hippocampal long-term potentiation, slow wave sleep, muscle relaxation and antinociception (Probable).
