Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-VAMP8/EDB antibody [EP2629Y] - BSA and Azide free (AB227984)

Immunohistochemical analysis of Human lacrimal gland tissue staining VAMP8/EDB with unpurified ab76021.

Antigen retrieval was performed using antigen retrieval solution in a microwave. Sections were blocked with 10 goat serum for 30 minutes and incubated with primary antibody (1/100) overnight at 4°C. Staining was detected using DAB.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab76021).

Supplementary information

VAMP8 also known as synaptobrevin-like protein 2 or EDB is a SNARE protein with a mass of approximately 12 kDa. This protein is widely expressed in many tissues including the lung pancreas and kidney. It plays an important role in vesicle-mediated transport where it facilitates the fusion of vesicles with target membranes as part of a larger protein complex. By participating in these membrane fusion processes the protein contributes to cellular trafficking.
Biological function summary

VAMP8 engages in vesicular transport mechanisms that support exocytosis and endocytosis processes. It forms part of the SNARE complex which is important for merging vesicles with their target compartments. Through this association VAMP8 aids the release of substances such as hormones and digestive enzymes from the cells. This process is critical for maintaining the balance and function of cellular activities across different tissues.

Pathways

VAMP8 functions in the context of the trafficking pathways that include the endocytic and exocytic pathways. It is a participant in regulated exocytosis where it interacts with other SNARE proteins like syntaxin and SNAP-25 ensuring precise membrane fusion events occur. These pathways ensure proper cellular communication and debris clearance underlining the importance of VAMP8 in general cellular homeostasis.

VAMP8 is associated with conditions like inflammatory diseases and certain exocytic disorders. Researchers have observed its involvement in conditions like pancreatitis where its regulatory function in enzyme secretion becomes apparent. VAMP8 also has connections with other disease-related proteins such as those in the SNARE family which contribute to altered secretory pathways and inflammation. Understanding the precise mechanisms of VAMP8 helps in developing therapeutic approaches to managing these disorders.

Target data

SNAREs, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor-attachment protein receptors, are essential proteins for fusion of cellular membranes. SNAREs localized on opposing membranes assemble to form a trans-SNARE complex, an extended, parallel four alpha-helical bundle that drives membrane fusion. VAMP8 is a SNARE involved in autophagy through the direct control of autophagosome membrane fusion with the lysososome membrane via its interaction with the STX17-SNAP29 binary t-SNARE complex (PubMed : 23217709, PubMed : 25686604). Also required for dense-granule secretion in platelets (PubMed : 12130530). Also plays a role in regulated enzyme secretion in pancreatic acinar cells (By similarity). Involved in the abscission of the midbody during cell division, which leads to completely separate daughter cells (By similarity). Involved in the homotypic fusion of early and late endosomes (By similarity). Participates also in the activation of type I interferon antiviral response through a TRIM6-dependent mechanism (PubMed : 31694946).
