Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Parvalbumin antibody (AB11427)
ab11427 staining Parvalbumin in human brain tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections).
Tissue was fixed in formaldehyde and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step was performed using EDTA pH 8.0 for 20 minutes at 100°C. Samples were then incubated with ab11427 at a 1/1000 dilution for 20 minutes at 25°C. The secondary used was an undiluted HRP conjugated goat anti-mouse/ rabbit IgG.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Parvalbumin antibody (AB11427)
Immunohistochemistry was performed on normal biopsies of deparaffinized Human skeletal muscle tissue. To expose target proteins heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1 : 20 with a rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizing Parvalbumin ab11427 or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.

Parvalbumin is a calcium-binding protein predominantly found in fast-spiking interneurons in the brain. It plays a critical role in regulating intracellular calcium levels and neurotransmission. Altered parvalbumin expression is associated with several neurological disorders, including epilepsy, schizophrenia, and autism spectrum disorders, where it affects neuronal excitability and synaptic function.

Biological function summary
Parvalbumin helps modulate calcium ion concentration which is key in muscle relaxation and neurotransmission. It acts by buffering calcium ions and is not part of a larger protein complex. By impacting calcium transients parvalbumin affects processes like synaptic plasticity and the rapid contractions of muscle fibers. This is especially significant in the brain where rapid neuronal firing is needed and in muscles where quick recovery is essential.
Pathways
Parvalbumin is intimately linked with calcium signaling pathways as well as the regulation of muscle contraction. It ensures proper calcium ion homeostasis thereby aiding muscle relaxation after contraction. In the nervous system calbindin proteins parallel some of parvalbumin's functions participating in calcium ion buffering and modulation of neuron excitability. The balanced action of these proteins helps maintain cellular functions in both neurons and muscles.
