Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-VDAC1/Porin + VDAC2 + VDAC3 antibody – Mitochondrial Loading Control (AB15895)
IHC image of VDAC1/Porin + VDAC2 + VDAC3 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human heart performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab15895, 0.1 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. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody. 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.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-VDAC1/Porin + VDAC2 + VDAC3 antibody – Mitochondrial Loading Control (AB15895)
ab15895 staining VDAC1/Porin + VDAC2 + VDAC3 in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 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 ab15895 at 5µg/ml and ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with ab150081, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150120, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-VDAC1/Porin + VDAC2 + VDAC3 antibody – Mitochondrial Loading Control (AB15895)
Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human heart labelling VDAC1/Porin with ab15895 at a concentration of 0.1µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with a OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with DISCOVERY cell conditioning solution (CC1) 100°C, pH8.5 for 32mins.
ab15895 Anti-VDAC1/Porin antibody was incubated for 16mins at 37°C. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.
Customers are encouraged to optimise antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentration, incubation times and temperature for best results in their own IHC assay workflow (automated and manual)

Biological function summary
VDAC proteins serve as gatekeepers for mitochondrial channels controlling the passage of molecules into and out of mitochondria. They are part of a large complex that includes proteins like hexokinase creatine kinase and components of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. VDACs significantly influence apoptosis by participating in the release of cytochrome c a critical step in the apoptotic pathway. Their function affects cellular survival energy balance and metabolism.
Pathways
The VDAC proteins are closely associated with energy metabolism and apoptotic pathways. They interact with the electron transport chain and glycolysis by regulating substrate flow and maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential. VDACs also link to Bcl-2 family proteins which modulate apoptosis. Their role in maintaining cellular homeostasis emphasizes their importance in cellular life-and-death decisions impacting vital processes such as oxidative phosphorylation and ATP synthesis.
