Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PAX6 antibody [EPR15858] (AB195045)
IHC image of Pax6 staining in a formalin fixed, paraffin embedded normal human cerebellum tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond™ 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 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab195045, 1/1000 dilution, 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.

ab195045 staining Pax6 in primary mouse neurons/glia, DIV1 (top row) and DIV14 (bottom row) both prepared from E18 mouse hippocampal brain area (obtained from Transnetyx Tissue by BrainBits, LLC, cat.no. C57EHP). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab195045 at 0.2 µg/ml and ab7291, mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with ab150081, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150120, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). A subset of cells showed staining in the nucleus at DIV1 (likely neuroprogenitor cells), while differentiated neurons (DIV14) where Pax6 negative. Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Western blot : Anti-PAX6 antibody [EPR15858] (ab195045) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. In Western blot, ab195045 was shown to bind specifically to PAX6. A band was observed at 50 kDa in wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PAX6 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and PAX6 knockout A549 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Biological function summary
PAX6 acts as an important regulator in eye and neural development functioning alone and as part of larger complexes with other transcription factors. This role ensures the correct formation of ocular structures including the lens retina and cornea and neural elements by activating downstream targets important for cell fate decisions. The PAX6 protein intricately influences the genetic circuits that guide stem cell differentiation highlighting its importance in embryogenesis and organogenesis.
Pathways
PAX6 is pivotal in the Wnt signaling pathway and retinoic acid signaling. Its interaction within the Wnt pathway orchestrates vital developmental processes including those of eye morphogenesis and brain patterning. The protein collaborates with other transcriptional regulators such as SOX2 and EYA1 within these pathways facilitating the complex network of signals necessary for organ development and cellular identity specification.
