Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Iba1 antibody - Microglia marker (AB107159)
ab107159 staining Iba1 in Rat liver tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 1% BSA for 15 minutes at 20°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a citrate buffer. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/2000 in PBS + 1% BSA) for 1 hour at 20°C. An undiluted HRP-conjugated anti-goat IgG polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody. Kupffer cells are positive for Iba-1.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Iba1 antibody - Microglia marker (AB107159)
IHC image of Iba1 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal rat brain performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution
- for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab107159, 5ug/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature. An HRP-conjugated donkey anti-goat IgG secondary was used for 15 mins at room temperature. 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.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Iba1 antibody - Microglia marker (AB107159)
IHC-P image of Iba1 staining on rat spleen sections using ab107159 (1 : 2000). The paraffin embedded sectons were subjected to heat mediated antigen retrieval using citric acid. The sections was then blocked using 1% BSA at 21°C for 10 min. The primary antibody was incubated at 21°C for 2 hours. The secondary antibody was goat polyclonal to anti-sheep conjugated to biotin at 1 : 250.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Iba1 antibody - Microglia marker (AB107159)
IHC-P image of Iba1 staining on marmoset (common) kidney sections using ab107159 (1 : 5000). The image shows macrophage infiltration in the cortex. The paraffin embedded sectons were subjected to heat mediated antigen retrieval using citric acid. The sections was then blocked using 1% BSA at 21°C for 10 min. The primary antibody was incubated at 21°C for 16 hours. The secondary antibody was rabbit polyclonal to sheep IgG conjugated to biotin at 1 : 200.

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.
