Anti vimentin antibody

Manufactured by Proteintech
Sourced in United States, China

The Anti-vimentin antibody is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and identification of the vimentin protein. Vimentin is a type III intermediate filament that is expressed in various cell types, particularly mesenchymal cells. This antibody can be used in techniques such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunocytochemistry to visualize and analyze the presence and distribution of vimentin in biological samples.

NIH3T3 cells were harvested into Co-IP buffer (Tris-HCl 50mM, pH7.4, MgCl2 10mM, NaCl 150mM, TritonX-100, 0.5%) supplemented with protease inhibitors and centrifuged at 12,000 g for 15 min. The supernatant was mixed with protein A/G agarose (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) at 4°C for 30 min to remove nonspecific binding constituents. Eight hundred micrograms of recovered proteins was mixed with 1μg anti-MXRA7 antibody (SZ181) or anti-vimentin antibody or isotype control IgG (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) at 4°C overnight on a roller. Then, 40μL protein A/G agarose beads were added for another 2 h at 4°C. The beads were spin-washed with pre-cooled Co-IP buffer six times. The final sediments were resuspended in an SDS loading buffer and boiled for 10 min. Cleared samples were separated on SDS-PAGE followed by transferring to the NC membrane. Routine WB was performed with an anti-MXRA7 antibody (1:1000 dilution, Sigma-Aldrich Company, St Louis, MO) or anti-vimentin antibody (1:1000 dilution, Proteintech, Wuhan, China).

Para n-embedded lung tissues were sectioned at 5 μm thick, then stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Pulmonary tissues were cut into 4 μm sections, then depara nized and rehydrated. For retrieving antigen, the slides were heated at 95 °C in 0.01 M citrate buffer (pH = 6.0), and 3% hydrogen peroxide was used to quench peroxidase activity for 20 min. The sections were treated with normal goat serum, followed by incubation overnight with anti-Vimentin antibody (1:400 dilution; Proteintech) at 4 °C. After being rinsed with PBS, the sections were incubated with goat anti rabbit IgG for 1 h and stained with 3, 3′diaminobenzidine (DAB; Zhongshan biotech, Beijing, China). After hematoxylin counterstain was completed, all the sections were dehydrated and sealed. We used PBS instead of prime antibody as a negative control. All images were recorded by Olympus BX-51 light microscope.

For in vivo metastasis analysis of TNBC cells, we performed tail vein injection of 1 × 106 MDA-MB-468 cells expressing either scramble or LIPG shRNA into athymic nude mice. Four weeks after injection, experimental mice were euthanized and dissected for lung isolation. Isolated lung were fixed and embedded in paraffin for making tissue sections. Paraffin-embedded lung tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE staining) for histological analysis of metastatic tumor foci. IHC analysis of vimentin protein expression in lung tumor foci was also performed using the anti-vimentin antibody (Proteintech, Rosemont, IL) to confirm metastasis of MDA-MB-468. The numbers of lung tumor foci were counted according to HE and IHC staining of lung tissue samples. In vivo metastasis experiments were performed according to the animal protocol approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of the University of Maryland School of Medicine, which is in accordance with the guidelines established by the USPHS.

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.
