Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Mannan Binding Lectin/MBL antibody [EPR18381-83] - BSA and Azide free (AB236550)

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded mouse liver tissue labeling Mannan Binding Lectin/MBL with ab212060 at 1/4000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use. Cytoplasmic staining in mouse liver (PMID : 12538708) is observed. Counter stained with hematoxylin.

Secondary antibody only control : Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab212060).

Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Supplementary information

Mannan Binding Lectin often referred to as MBL is an important player in the innate immune system. It is known alternatively as mannose-binding lectin or mannan-binding protein. The mass of MBL is approximately 32 to 34 kilodaltons and it is primarily produced in the liver. MBL circulates in the bloodstream where it can recognize patterns on the surface of pathogens such as bacteria and viruses through its lectin-binding domain. This recognition leads to the activation of other components that play roles in immune response.
Biological function summary

Mannan Binding Lectin serves a significant role in immune defense by binding to carbohydrate structures on pathogens. It is part of a complex known as the lectin pathway of the complement system one of three pathways that activate the complement system to enhance pathogen removal. MBL can activate through a series of proteases leading to opsonization cell lysis and inflammation which are vital responses to infection.

Pathways

Mannan recognition by MBL initiates the lectin pathway an essential component of the complement system. This pathway converges with the classical and alternative pathways to enhance the immune response. MBL works closely with MBL-associated serine proteases (MASPs) particularly MASP-1 and MASP-2 which cleave complement proteins resulting in pathogen opsonization and membrane attack complex formation. These actions are tightly regulated and ensure effective defense against invaders.

Deficiencies or polymorphisms in MBL can lead to increased susceptibility to infections and developmental complications of the immune system. Individuals with low MBL levels may experience recurrent respiratory infections or other bacterial infections due to inadequate complement activation. Moreover variations in the MBL protein have connections with autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus where MBL levels might influence disease severity. In these conditions altered interactions with other immune proteins like C4 and C3 may contribute to pathological responses.

Target data

Calcium-dependent lectin involved in innate immune defense. Binds mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine on different microorganisms and activates the lectin complement pathway. Binds to late apoptotic cells, as well as to apoptotic blebs and to necrotic cells, but not to early apoptotic cells, facilitating their uptake by macrophages (By similarity).
