Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Rhodopsin antibody [1D4] (AB5417)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human retinal tissue labeling Rhodopsin with ab5417.
Secondary used was HRP conjugated. Prior preparation was initiated by antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0), microwaved for 8-15 min. Subsequent to retrival the retinal tissue was blocked in 3% H2O2-methanol for 15 min at room temperature. The sample was then incubated with ab5417 in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1 : 200 overnight at 4°C, overnight. Hematoxylin was used to counterstain the tissue.
The left side of the image is shown as a negative control and is the tissue in the absence of ab5417, the right side is in the prescence of the counterstain, ab5417 and the HRP conjugated secondary.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Rhodopsin antibody [1D4] (AB5417)
Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin-fixed human retinal tissue, labeling rhodopsin with ab5417 at a 1 : 50 dilution in 3% BSA-PBS solution and incubated at 4°C overnight in a high humidity environment.
A DyLight® 488 secondary antibody was used (green) incubated at room temperature in the dark. The tissue was counterstained with DAPI against DNA, showing nuclear compartments. Prior to staining the formalin-fixed tissue was permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for between 5 and 10 minutes, then blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature.
The left image is a negative control with only the secondary antibody and the right image is in the presence of ab5417 and the secondary.

Biological function summary
Rhodopsin enables night vision by absorbing photons and activating a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) cascade. Rhodopsin is an integral part of a protein complex within the phototransduction pathway where it works closely with transducin to amplify the visual signal. It initiates the conversion of the photon into an electrical signal. Rhodopsin's role is triggering a structural change in response to light converting from its inactive form to a signaling state.
Pathways
Rhodopsin is deeply involved in the phototransduction and retinoid cycle pathways. Once it absorbs light the transducin it binds causes the activation of a cascade that ultimately results in hyperpolarization of the rod cells. This network of interactions also involves arrestin and recoverin which work together to regulate rhodopsin activity and signal termination. The process ensures precise response and recovery of the visual signal in low-light conditions.
