Notes

An antigen retrieval step is necessary (e.g. incubating the sections at 90 degrees C in a 50mM citrate buffer). Cell body labeling is optimized when Triton is omitted from the tissue processing. Axon terminal labeling is substantially increased (and cell body labeling decreased) when Triton is included (see Soghomonian et al, 1998).

Perform heat-mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Notes


ab26116 mouse monoclonal [K-87] to GAD67 specically recognizes GAD67 and has no cross reactivity with GAD65; this has been shown on western blots of mouse brain or purified recombinant GAD67 and GAD65. In immunohistochemical analysis of brain sections, the K-87 monoclonal recognizes GAD67 in nerve cell bodies and has an enhanced ability to detect GAD67 in dendrites and axon buttons compared to the original anti-GAD67 K-2 polyclonal antibody (see Kaufman et al, 1991).

    Overlay histogram showing PC12 cells stained with ab26116 (red line). The cells were fixed with methanol (5 min) and incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab26116, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (Mouse IgG1, Kappa Monoclonal [B11/6] - Isotype Control ab91353, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a slightly decreased signal in PC12 cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) used under the same conditions.

    Please note that Abcam does not have data for use of this antibody on non-fixed cells. We welcome any customer feedback.

The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab26116, 10μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM.
