Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-L1CAM antibody [2C2] - BSA and Azide free (AB264526)

IHC image of L1CAM staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human kidney* 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 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab24345, 0.1ug/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. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

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.

Western blot - Anti-L1CAM antibody [2C2] - BSA and Azide free (AB264526)

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 55 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before ab24345 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1ug/ml concentration and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Antibody binding was detected using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

This image was generated using the ascites version of the product.

Supplementary information

L1CAM also known as neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 200-220 kDa. The L1CAM protein belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is heavily glycosylated. It plays a significant role in cell adhesion processes within the nervous system. L1CAM is expressed in a variety of tissues including the brain kidney and peripheral nerves and is notably present in neuronal cells where it engages in cell-cell interactions. Researchers frequently use L1CAM IHC ELISA methods and specific fluorescent markers like Alexa Fluor 568 to study its expression patterns and localization.
Biological function summary

L1CAM facilitates neuronal migration axonal growth and synaptic plasticity. This protein participates in the formation and maintenance of neural networks. It interacts with other cell adhesion molecules and components of the extracellular matrix. L1CAM acts as an important modulator within neuronal signaling complexes which impacts the development and regeneration of the nervous system. Insights into its structural and cell interaction properties have made it a focus for understanding nervous system functions.

Pathways

L1CAM participates extensively in the MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways. These pathways contribute to cellular growth survival and programmed cell death. The protein interacts with other molecules such as integrins and FGFRs to propagate signaling cascades important for cellular response mechanisms. These connections help modulate cytoskeletal dynamics influencing cellular adhesion and motility needed during brain development and response to injury.

L1CAM has been associated with hydrocephalus and some cancers. Mutations in the L1CAM gene can lead to L1 syndrome which includes a spectrum of neurological disorders particularly hydrocephalus. In cancer overexpression or altered regulation of L1CAM may correlate with tumor aggressiveness and metastatic potential. L1CAM's association with integrin and cadherin proteins underlines its relevance in pathological states and highlights a potential target for therapeutic interventions.
