Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-PCSK2 antibody [EPR23578-19] (AB274418)
Fluorescence multiplex immunohistochemical analysis of human adrenal gland (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded section). Panel A shows merged staining of anti-PCSK2 stained on adrenal medulla (ab274418; gray; Opal™690) at 1 : 2000 (0.263 μg/ml) [Panel B], anti-CYP11A1 stained on adrenal cortex (ab272494; green; Opal™520) at 1 : 10000 (0.053 μg/ml) [Panel C], and anti-Neuropeptide Y stained on chromaffin cells (ab221145; red; Opal™570) at 1 : 2000 (0.279 μg/ml) [Panel D] on human adrenal gland. DAPI was used as a nuclear counter stain. Followed by Opal Polymer HRP Ms + Rb secondary antibody. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope. The section was incubated in three rounds of staining : in the order of ab274418, ab272494, and ab221145 for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution2) for 20 mins was used.

Biological function summary
PCSK2 is responsible for activating various prohormones into their active hormone counterparts. It accomplishes this by cleaving specific sites on precursor proteins. PCSK2 does not operate as part of a complex but independently participates in proteolytic processing essential for proper hormone functioning. This enzyme's activity is critical for the synthesis of key hormones like insulin and glucagon which regulate glucose metabolism.
Pathways
PCSK2 is a significant part of hormone processing pathways. Specifically it contributes to the insulin-processing pathway which is important for energy regulation and homeostasis. PCSK2 works closely with related proteins such as PCSK1 (proprotein convertase 1) in the cleavage of precursor forms of various hormones. The coordinated action of these enzymes ensures the production of bioactive hormones required for normal metabolic functions.
