Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Iba1 antibody [EPR16588] - Microglia marker – Chicken IgY (Chimeric) (AB318302)
This image was produced using ab317805, the same antibody clone but in a different formulation. ab318305 staining Iba1 in THP-1 (positive) and HeLa (negative) cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-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 overnight at 4°C with ab318305 at 5 µg/ml and ab202272, Alexa Fluor® 594 Rabbit monoclonal [EP1332Y] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (shown in pseudocolour magenta). Cells were then incubated with ab150173, Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). Image was acquired with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems TCS SP8) and a single confocal section is shown.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Iba1 antibody [EPR16588] - Microglia marker – Chicken IgY (Chimeric) (AB318302)
This image was produced using ab317805, the same antibody clone but in a different formulation. Immunofluorescence staining of Iba1 in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human brain. Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate (pH6.0) for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab318305 at 1 μg/ml, and then incubated for 1 hour with ab150173, Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®. Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8). For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

Reactivity data
Product details
This chicken monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (ab178846). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

Biological function summary
Iba1 modulates actin bundling facilitating changes in microglial morphology and motility. It does not form part of a multiprotein complex but is significantly involved in cytoskeletal dynamics. This protein's expression increases during brain injury indicating its role in response to neural trauma. Iba1 has calcium-binding properties which suggest that it might interact with proteins involved in calcium signaling pathways.
Pathways
Calcium signaling and actin cytoskeletal rearrangement are significant biological processes that involve Iba1. Within these pathways Iba1 interacts closely with other actin-binding proteins that affect microglial movement and morphology. Such interactions illustrate how Iba1 helps microglia navigate and respond to changes within the brain environment.
