Rabbit anti neuropeptide y

Manufactured by Immunostar

Rabbit anti-neuropeptide Y is a primary antibody that recognizes neuropeptide Y, a regulatory peptide found in the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is commonly used in research applications to detect and quantify neuropeptide Y expression in biological samples.

Free-floating fixed sections were blocked in 5% goat serum, 0.5% Triton X-100 (TX) in PBS for 1 hour at room temperature, and then incubated with primary antibody in 1.25% goat serum, 0.125% TX in PBS for 48 hours at 4°C. Sections were then washed 3x with PBS and incubated with secondary antibodies in 1% goat serum, 0.1% TX in PBS for 2 hours at room temperature. Finally, sections were washed 3x with PBS and mounted in Vectashield Antifade (Vector Laboratories) or Prolong Diamond (Molecular Probes) mounting medium. Sections stained with mouse primary antibodies were blocked in ReadyProbes “Mouse on Mouse” IgG blocking solution (Thermofisher) for 1 hour before the initial blocking step. Primary antibodies and dilutions used were rabbit anti-calretinin (Swant, 1:2000), mouse anti-calbindin (Swant, 1:500), and rabbit anti-neuropeptide Y (Immunostar, 1:2000). Secondary antibodies used were AlexaFluor 647 anti-rabbit (Thermofisher, 1:1000) and AlexaFluor 647 anti-mouse (Thermofisher, 1:500).

Tissue preparation and immunohistochemistry were done as described (Palop et al., 2011 (link)). After fixation, brains were cryoprotected in 30% sucrose in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for 2 days and sectioned with a sliding microtome (Leica Microsystems) into 30-µm sections. Ten stereological subseries sections from each hemibrain were stored in a solution containing 30% glycerol, 30% ethylene glycol, and 40% PBS at −20°C until staining. Primary antibodies used included rabbit anti-GFP (1:3,000; Life Technologies), chicken anti-GFP (1:500; Aves Labs), rabbit anti-Nav1.1 (1:500; Alomone), mouse anti-parvalbumin (1:3,000; Swant), rabbit anti-parvalbumin (1:3,000; Swant), rat anti-somatostatin (1:50; Novus), rabbit anti-neuropeptide Y (1:2000; Immunostar), rabbit anti-Iba-1 (1:1000; Wako), rabbit anti-GFAP (1:3000; Sigma), and biotinylated 82E1 (1:1000; Immuno-Biological Laboratories). Primary antibodies were detected with biotinylated donkey anti-rabbit (1:500; Jackson ImmunoResearch), Alexa Fluor 488 donkey anti-rabbit (1:300; Life Technologies), Alexa Fluor 488 donkey anti-chicken (1:300; Life Technologies), Alexa Fluor 594 donkey anti-rat (1:300; Life Technologies), Alexa Fluor 594 donkey anti-mouse (1:300; Life Technologies), or Alexa Fluor 594 donkey anti-rabbit (1:300; Life Technologies).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
