Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-SSEA1 antibody [MC-480] (AB16285)

IHC image of SSEA1 staining in Human Hodgkin's Lymphoma formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section*. The section was pre-treated using pressure cooker heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6.0). The section was incubated with ab16285, 1/200 dilution, overnight at 4°C. A Goat anti-Mouse (IgM) HRP conjugated secondary antibody (ab97230 at 1/2000) was used to detect the primary and visualized using DAB as the chromogen. The section was 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.

The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween 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 ab16285 at a 1/1000 dilution and ab6046, Rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with ab150121, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgM - mu chain (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150080, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Supplementary information

Stage-specific embryonic antigen-1 (SSEA-1) also known as CD15 is a carbohydrate antigen often attached to glycoproteins or glycolipids. It has a molecular mass of approximately 480 Da. SSEA-1 is prominently expressed on the surface of murine embryonal carcinoma cells granulocytes and neural stem cells. It plays a role in cellular processes such as adhesion where it influences cell-to-cell and cell-to-extracellular matrix interactions.
Biological function summary

SSEA-1 participates in the regulation of cell differentiation and migration. This carbohydrate antigen is particularly critical in developmental stages where it impacts cellular behaviors that are important for embryogenesis. It functions as an adhesion molecule playing a role in forming complexes with cell surface lectins. These complexes can influence how cells communicate and adhere to one another therefore affecting various aspects of cellular dynamics.

Pathways

SSEA-1 is integral to the leukocyte extravasation signaling pathway which is significant for the immune system's operation. It interacts with proteins involved in the regulation of inflammation and immune response such as selectins. The antigen aids the tethering and rolling of leukocytes on endothelial surfaces a precursor step for their transmigration into tissues. SSEA-1's interaction with selectins is important in this process driving important cellular functions that enable immune surveillance and responses.

SSEA-1 is associated with certain cancers such as leukemia and neurological disorders. In leukemia SSEA-1 can act as a marker for cancer stem cells influencing tumor progression and resistance to chemotherapy. In the context of neurological disorders its altered expression is connected with the pathology of Alzheimer's disease where neural stem cell behavior may be affected. Other proteins like amyloid precursors potentially interact with SSEA-1 in Alzheimer's contributing to the disease's complexity.

Target data

Catalyzes alpha(1->3) linkage of fucosyl moiety transferred from GDP-beta-L-fucose to N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) within type 2 lactosamine (LacNAc, Gal-beta(1->4)GlcNAc) glycan attached to N- or O-linked glycoproteins (PubMed : 11485743). Robustly fucosylates nonsialylated distal LacNAc unit of the polylactosamine chain to form Lewis X antigen (CD15), a glycan determinant known to mediate important cellular functions in development and immunity. Fucosylates with lower efficiency sialylated LacNAc acceptors to form sialyl Lewis X and 6-sulfo sialyl Lewis X determinants that serve as recognition epitopes for C-type lectins (PubMed : 11485743). Together with FUT7 contributes to SELE, SELL and SELP selectin ligand biosynthesis and selectin-dependent lymphocyte homing, leukocyte migration and blood leukocyte homeostasis (PubMed : 11485743). In a cell type specific manner, may also fucosylate the internal LacNAc unit of the polylactosamine chain to form VIM-2 antigen that serves as recognition epitope for SELE (By similarity).
