Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Tau antibody (AB75714)
IHC image of Tau staining in Human Hippocampus (Alzheimer's) (ab4583) formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded 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 ab75714, 5 μg/ml, 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.

Biological function summary
Tau is involved in the assembly and stabilization of microtubules essential for maintaining neuronal structure. It interacts with microtubule-binding domains (MBD) to bind and bundle microtubules facilitating intracellular transport. Tau forms a part of the neuronal cytoskeleton complex working closely with other cytoskeletal proteins to preserve the proper axonal transport and function. Abnormally phosphorylated Tau often termed phospho-Tau disrupts this complex affecting microtubule stability.
Pathways
Tau has critical involvement in several signaling cascades such as the microtubule-binding and transport pathways. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) and cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) frequently phosphorylate Tau controlling its interaction with microtubules. Phosphorylated Tau accumulates leading to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles often observed in neurodegenerative conditions. Additionally Tau interacts with GAPDH impacting cellular energy regulation through potential pathway cross-talk involving oxidative stress responses.
