Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-LDL Receptor antibody (AB30532)
Immunohistochemistry analysis of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) mouse lung tissue after heat induced antigen retrieval in pH 6.0 citrate buffer. After incubation with LDL receptor polyclonal antibody, ab30532, at a 1 : 100 dilution, slides were incubated with biotinylated secondary antibody, followed by alkaline phosphatase-streptavidin and chromogen (DAB).

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-LDL Receptor antibody (AB30532)
ICC/IF image of ab30532 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab30532, 1/400) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM.

ab30532 staining LDL receptor in human lung parenchyma.
Left panel : with primary antibody at 1/400. Right panel : isotype control.
Sections were stained using an automated system (DAKO Autostainer Plus), at room temperature : sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffers citrate pH6.1. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.

Immunocytochemistry - Anti-LDL Receptor antibody (AB30532)
Immunocytochemistry analysis of acetone-fixed human Liver cells, Hep2G staining with ab30532 at 1/200 dilution. Secondary antibody was FITC rabbit IgG at 1/400 dilution. Samples were incubated with the primary antibody with Serum/PBS for 1 hours at 21°C. Blocking was done using 5% serum for 15 minutes at 21°C.

Biological function summary
The LDL receptor interacts with LDL particles to regulate cholesterol levels in the body. It is part of a cell surface complex that recognizes and binds to apolipoprotein B-100 or apolipoprotein E present on LDL. This interaction initiates internalization of LDL leading to its degradation in lysosomes where cholesterol can be released and used by the cell. Mutations in the gene encoding LDLR can lead to inefficient cholesterol uptake influencing various metabolic processes.
Pathways
LDL receptor activities are integral to lipid metabolism and cholesterol homeostasis. Two important biological pathways that involve LDLR include the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and the lipoprotein clearance pathway. Within these pathways LDLR collaborates closely with proteins like PCSK9 which modulates its expression and degradation and HMG-CoA reductase an important enzyme in cholesterol synthesis to balance cholesterol levels in the body.
