Mouse anti pecam 1

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom, Germany

Mouse anti-PECAM-1 is an antibody that specifically binds to the PECAM-1 (Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1) protein. PECAM-1 is a cell surface glycoprotein involved in cell-cell adhesion, particularly between endothelial cells. This antibody can be used to detect the presence and distribution of PECAM-1 in various cell and tissue samples.

Immunofluorescence Staining for Angiogenesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunofluorescence staining was performed according to the protocol previously described [28 (link)]. The primary antibodies used were as follows: rabbit anti-RFP (1:200; Abcam Inc., USA), mouse anti-PECAM-1 (1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Germany), rabbit anti-Ki67 (1:200; Cell signaling technology, USA). Each section was washed with PBS and incubated with proper secondary antibodies at room temperature for 2 h the following day. 1%BSA was used as a control to confirm the specificity of the antibody and DAPI (1:30) was used to detect the nucleus. Images were acquired using a Leica fluorescence microscope (Leica, Germany). Ki67+ /CD31+ microvessels in the perifocal region was counted and quantified by an investigator who was blinded to the experimental groups.

Rat Brain Immunofluorescence for Microvascular Density

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For rat brain immunofluorescence, rats were killed 48 h after MCAO. Brain samples (MCA cortex area) were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and then dehydrated sequentially in 20% and 30% sucrose solutions until the brain sank. Tissues were stored at −80°C after being embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound. Consecutive coronal sections of 8 um thickness were incubated in 1% BSA with mouse anti-PECAM-1 (1 : 50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany) or anti-CD34 (1 : 200; Abcam Inc., Cambridge, MA, USA) at 4°C overnight. Each section was washed with PBS and incubated with Alexa-488-conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary antibodies (1 : 400) or Alexa-594-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit secondary antibodies (1 : 400) at room temperature for 2 hours the following day. 1% BSA was used as a control to confirm the specificity of the antibody and DAPI (1 : 30) was used to detect the nucleus. To quantify microvascular density after MCAO, images of the ischemic cortex and the contralateral cortex were acquired using a Leica fluorescence microscope, the PECAM-1 positive cells or CD34 were positive cells counted in each image and the mean of the total positive cell counting was considered as microvascular density [14 (link), 15 (link)].

Quantifying Tumor Necrosis and Angiogenesis

Tumors were harvested, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 h, embedded in paraffin and sectioned. All slide images were captured using an Aperio T3 Scanscope and quantification was performed by a blinded investigator using Aperio Imagescope Software (Aperio Technologies, Vista, CA).
Percent necrosis was determined from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained sections. Unstained sections were stained with a monoclonal rabbit anti-mouse PECAM-1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Santa Cruz, CA) and a polyclonal rabbit anti-human Ki67 (Novocastra Laboratories, Ltd., Newcastle, UK), to quantify, respectively, differences in blood vessel density and alterations in cellular proliferation. TUNEL staining was performed using a TdT In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit – TACS Blue Label (Trevigen Inc., Gaithersburg, MD) per manufacturer’s instructions. Statistical significances of differences were calculated using the Student’s t-test, two-tailed.

Nuclei were counterstained with 4',6-diamidino,2-phenylindole (DAPI, Sigma). Tumor slices were analyzed using Confocal LSM510 microscope equipped with Plan-Neofluar 20 × /0.5 NA and Plan-Apochromat 63 × /1.4 NA oil objectives (Carl Zeiss). Z-stack images were elaborated using AxioVision Inside4D module (Carl Zeiss).

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.
