      Thank you for replacement GAD65 ab 112497. I try it on my western blot. The ab
      lind up to all my mark. and no band was found on my positive control(Rat brain
      tissue). The reason I select 112497, because I think this is polycolonal ab and
      may give mpre chance for my cells.
      If you can send me another GAD 65 ab 75750, I can try!

      Answer

      Thank you very much for your reply.

      I am sorry to hear that the replacement ab112497 did not work in Western blot. Just to confirm, there were multiple bands in your neuron lysate, and no bands with the rab brain lysate? Were you using the same protocol as before?

      I'm sending a replacement vial of ab75750 on the order ***, which we expect to arrive around Thursday of next week. Please keep me updated about the results with this antibody as well. If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know and I'll be happy to help.

      Answer

      Thank you very much for your reply.

      I'm sending a free of charge vial of ab112497 on the order **** so that you can compare the results to those with ab26113. This antibody is out of stock but we expect it to arrive around September 27 (next Thursday). For our records, could you also let me know if you block with milk or BSA during your Western blot experiments?

      Please keep me updated about the results with ab112497 once you've had a chance to try it. I look forward to hearing from you. If there is anything else that we can do for you please let me know and I'll be happy to help.

      Answer

      Thank you very much for your call yesterday and for your patience while I've looked into your enquiry.

      I actually could not find a reference showing analysis of endogneous GAD65 in culture neurons by Western blot. So, I'm still not quite sure how to explain this 40 kDa band in your samples. Do you have access to any other tissues to use as a positive control, just to further verify that the antibody is binding specifically? Have you managed to find any information in the literature?

      I am very sorry that I don't have more information, but if you have any concerns about this antibody and feel that it is binding non-specifically, I'd be happy to send you a replacement antibody such as ab75750 or ab112497-

      Question

      Hello,



      thanks a lot for your answer.

      I would have another question though: as the GAD65 antibody is confined to nerve terminals, is it (in general) possible to stain for GAD65 cell bodies? Are there antibodies that are specifically used to stain for these cell bodies? I mean in the literature you see stainings for GAD65 cell bodies..

      Thank you for contacting us.

      We are happy to help customers find the most suitable products for their research purposes; however we are not specialized in this particular field and do not want to recommend a product that may be unsuitable. We encourage customers to consult the latest literature available through PubMed and other resources in order to find the most up-to-date information about their specific research interests.

      I am sorry that I could not be more helpful, but I hope that the available literature in this area can provide some clarification. Please do not hesitate to contact us again with other needs or with any questions about our products.

      Question

      Lot number: Gr56581-1
      Inquiry: Hello, in our lab we want to stain for GAD65 neuronal cell bodies in mouse spinal cord (see protocol attached). As described in the literature and our protocol, we leave out any Triton steps for this. The staining works (labeling found mainly in Rexed lamina 1 and 2) but as besides the GAD65 cell bodies a lot of synapses around are labeled as well, we hardly see them! Do you know a method or a special treatment to prevent synaptic labeling in this case? For GAD67 this kind of staining works nicely (cell bodies clearly visible). Is there maybe a difference in the staining because GAD65 is supposed to be located more in synapses (in comparison to GAD67)? But as in the literature GAD65 cell body staining have been described, it should somehow be possible to make them visible in a clear way. Thanks in advance,

      Asked on Jul 11 2012

      Answer

      Thank you for your enquiry regarding ab26113.

      It has been reported that GAD65 is transported to nerve terminals and this antibody (ab26113) should stain them as “puncta” around the cell body of their target neurons.

      On the other hand, GAD67 (ab26116) is localized to cell bodies, axons and terminals and it will stain these well as long as the samples undergo antigen retrieval.

      I hope this helps and if I can assist further, please do not hesitate to contact me.

This assay plate was stained for other markers which worked fine indicating that there was no problem with the staining method or the image capture system. We have previously used this antibody in this manner and have gotten good results. We expect our cultures to be 60-70% GAD65 positive.

      Asked on Feb 14 2012

      Answer

      Thank you for contacting Abcam.

      Based on the protocol the customer sent, there are a few suggestions that may help resolve the issue:

      1 - Increase the concentration of primary antibody used to 1/200.

      2 - Increase the incubation time to 3 hours at room temperature.

      I understand that the customer had previously purchased vials of this antibody and it has proved to be successful for them but as we have not tested ab26113 in either human cells or if it is not covered under our Abpromise. Please let me know if changing the above does not prove to be successful and I will if there is anything else I can do.
