Rabbit anti cav 1
The Rabbit anti-Cav-1 is an antibody that recognizes the Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) protein. Cav-1 is a structural component of caveolae, which are invaginations of the plasma membrane that play a role in various cellular processes. The Rabbit anti-Cav-1 antibody can be used to detect and study the expression and localization of Cav-1 in biological samples.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Colorectal Cancer
Two pathologists blinded to the experiments assessed the extent and intensity of immunostaining. The protein expression levels of Cav-1 and EGFR were observed under high-power magnification (×400); 5 different fields of view were randomly selected in each section, and 200 cells were counted. The degree of staining was scored between 0 and 3 points: 0 point=no staining, 1 point=weak staining, 2 points=moderate staining, and 3 points=strong staining. Cells scoring >2 points were defined as positive cells; <50% of positive cells within a field was defined as a negative expression, and ≥50% of positive cells was defined as a positive expression. We chose EGFR-positive expression tissues for the subsequent study. A total of 76 cases of colorectal cancer tissues were further tested for the expressions of Cav-1 and Ki-67.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Cav1 Expression
Xenograft and tissue samples were fixed in 4% buffered formaldehyde and paraffin-embedded. Threemicrometer-thick sections from the mouse tissue samples as well as from representative tumor blocks of the human adenocarcinoma samples were collected on Superfrost Plus slides for immunohistochemistry.
Cav1 immunohistochemistry was performed using an automated slide-processing platform (Ventana BenchMark XT AutoStainer, Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ, USA) and a polyclonal antibody (rabbit anti-Cav1, diluted 1:350; Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Cav1 staining was assessed as a categorical variable (negative or positive if present in at least 10% of neoplastic cells) and analyzed independently by three of the authors (R.S., E.D., and P.C.). Vascular endothelium represented an internal positive control. In discrepant cases, slides were reviewed at a multiheaded microscope to reach agreement.
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.
