Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - Anti-Laminin 5 antibody [P3H9-2] - BSA and Azide free (AB174717)

This IHC data was generated using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab78286).

IHC image of Laminin 5 staining in a section of frozen normal human colon*, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. No antigen retrieval step was performed prior to staining. The section was incubated with ab78286, 1 μg/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.

This IHC data was generated using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab78286).

IHC image of Laminin 5 staining in a section of frozen normal human skin*, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. No antigen retrieval step was performed prior to staining. The section was incubated with ab78286, 1 μg/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.

Laminin 5 also known as laminin-332 is a heterotrimeric glycoprotein composed of alpha-3 beta-3 and gamma-2 chains with a molecular mass of about 460 kDa. Laminin 5 is expressed in the basement membrane zone of epithelial tissues playing a significant role in tissue structure. This molecule is widely present in areas such as skin lungs and other epithelial cell surfaces facilitating cellular functions like adhesion migration and differentiation. Researchers often use laminin antibodies including those for laminin IHC to visualize this molecule in various tissue samples.
Biological function summary

Laminin 5 forms part of the integrin complexes that modulate interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix. It provides critical structural support and influences cell behavior within the tissue microenvironment. Laminin 5 participates in the anchoring of keratinocytes to the underlying basement membrane which is essential for skin integrity and maintenance. Its interaction with laminin receptors on the cell surface strengthens the cellular attachment impacting the overall integrity and mechanical resistance of tissues.

Pathways

Laminin 5 is integral to the hemidesmosome assembly pathway and the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. These pathways involve its interactions with integrins such as alpha-6 beta-4 and other proteins like dystroglycan. Laminin molecules including laminin 5 influence the downstream signaling of MAPK/ERK which governs processes like cellular proliferation and differentiation. The linkage with integrin-mediated signaling pathways allows laminin 5 to participate actively in cell adhesion mechanisms and responses to extracellular matrix changes.

Laminin 5 associates with junctional epidermolysis bullosa and cancer progression. Mutations in the genes encoding laminin 5 subunits lead to junctional epidermolysis bullosa a disorder marked by fragile skin and blister formations due to defective basement membrane anchoring. In cancer altered expression of laminin 5 facilitates tumor invasion and metastasis often involving interactions with matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and other extracellular matrix components. These connections underline the role of laminin 5 in pathological processes highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target.

Target data

Binding to cells via a high affinity receptor, laminin is thought to mediate the attachment, migration and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components.. Laminin-5 is thought to be involved in (1) cell adhesion via integrin alpha-3/beta-1 in focal adhesion and integrin alpha-6/beta-4 in hemidesmosomes, (2) signal transduction via tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125-FAK and p80, (3) differentiation of keratinocytes.
