Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Hsp27 antibody (AB5579)

HeLa (human epithelial cell line from cervix adenocarcinoma) cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde in PEM buffer. The coverslip was incubated in blocking buffer of 5% powdered milk in TBS-T plus 0.02% sodium azide for 1 hour at room temperature. Blocking buffer was removed and primary antibody was added at a dilution of 1/250 and incubated overnight at 4 degrees celsius. The coverslips were then washed 4-5 times with blocking buffer for 5 minutes. Secondary antibody, goat anti-rabbit Alexa 594 (ab150080), was added at a dilution of 1/1000 and incubated at room temperature for one hour. From this point on coverslips were covered with foil to protect them from light. They were washed 5 times with TBS-T and then one time with PEM, for 5 minutes each wash. The coverslips were fixed 10-30 minutes in 4% formaldehyde in PEM buffer, then washed 3 times with PEM buffer for 5 minutes. 0.1M ammonium chloride in PEM buffer was added for 10 minutes to quench auto-florescence, and then slips were washed 2 times for 5 minutes in PEM followed by 3 washes for 5 minute

Supplementary information

Hsp27 also known as HSPB1 is a small heat shock protein with a molecular weight of approximately 27 kilodaltons. This protein is expressed in various tissues including muscle heart and brain. It functions as a molecular chaperone that stabilizes unfolded proteins preventing their aggregation. Hsp27 undergoes phosphorylation at specific residues which modulates its chaperone activity and interaction with other proteins.
Biological function summary

Hsp27 plays a critical role in cellular stress response by regulating actin cytoskeleton dynamics and inhibiting apoptosis. It forms part of a complex that includes other proteins such as alphaB-crystallin. This complex facilitates the reorganization of proteins under stress conditions enhancing cell survival during oxidative stress or thermal shock. Hsp27 also modulates inflammatory responses and has been shown to affect cell migration.

Pathways

Hsp27 integrates into the apoptosis and inflammation pathways. It interacts with apoptotic machinery such as caspase proteins to protect cells by hindering apoptosome formation. Additionally Hsp27 can engage with pathways involving the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) impacting inflammatory signaling. CPTC (carboxyl-pyrene-trioctylamine) can modulate these pathways by altering Hsp27 function and interactions.

Hsp27 has connections to neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. In neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease its chaperone activity is thought to protect neurons from misfolded protein aggregates. In cancer Hsp27 supports tumor cell survival and resistance to chemotherapy by interacting with proteins like Akt and p53. These interactions highlight the complex role of Hsp27 in modulating cellular responses in various pathological states.

Target data

Small heat shock protein which functions as a molecular chaperone probably maintaining denatured proteins in a folding-competent state (PubMed : 10383393, PubMed : 20178975). Plays a role in stress resistance and actin organization (PubMed : 19166925). Through its molecular chaperone activity may regulate numerous biological processes including the phosphorylation and the axonal transport of neurofilament proteins (PubMed : 23728742).
