Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-gamma H2A.X (phospho S139) antibody [3F2] (AB22551)

IHC image of ab22551 staining in Human breast formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond^TM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab22551, 5μg/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 haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

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.

Flow Cytometry - Anti-gamma H2A.X (phospho S139) antibody [3F2] (AB22551)

Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with ab22551 (red line). The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 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 (ab22551, 1μg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was Mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2μg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.

ICC/IF image of ab22551 stained HepG2 cells. 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 (ab22551, 10μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG - H&L, pre-adsorbed (ab96879) used at a 1/250 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.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-gamma H2A.X (phospho S139) antibody [3F2] (AB22551)

Immunohistochemistry analysis of phospho-Histone H2A.X pSer140 labelled with ab22551 in postnatal mouse (PN19) lung sections. Antigen retrieval from 4% PFA, paraffin embedded sections was performed using heat induced epitope retrieval (HIER) method with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Following antigen retrieval, tissues were blocked and probed withab22551 at a dilution of 1 : 400. Increased staining intensity was observed in a genetic mouse model with DNA damage in airway cells.
