Species specific secondary antibodies

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

Species-specific secondary antibodies are laboratory reagents used to detect and quantify target proteins in various biological samples. These antibodies are designed to bind to the primary antibodies that are specific to the species of interest, enabling the visualization and measurement of the target proteins.

After 2 days of in vitro culture, chimeric organoids were fixed in 4% PFA for 10 min, permeabilized with 100% cold methanol for 10 min, and incubated with mouse anti-E-cadherin (1:100, BD Biosciences), rabbit anti-WT1 (1:50, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) followed by species-specific secondary antibodies (1:50; Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories). To detect human cells, chimeric organoids were incubated with FITC-conjugated anti–Human Nuclear Antigen (HNA, 1:100; Merck Millipore Ltd). Chimeric organoids were mounted with Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium (DAKO Corporation) and examined using an inverted confocal laser-scanning microscope (LS 510 Meta; Carl Zeiss). 3D images of chimeric organoids were reconstructed using the Axio Vision Imager software (Carl Zeiss).

Species-specific secondary antibodies (Jackson Immunoresearch) raised in donkey were used at 1:250. Permeabilization was done with 0.3% Triton-X100 except for rat anti-Basigin staining which required Tween-20.

Embedded bones were sectioned at 100 µm thickness using a cryostat from Leica (CM3050 S). Sections were hydrated using PBS and permeabilized using 0.5% Triton-X100 in PBS for 15 min at room temperature (RT). Samples were then incubated in blocking solution (0.3% Triton, 1% BSA, 2% donkey serum in PBS) for 30 min at RT prior to primary antibody staining. Primary antibodies were diluted in blocking solution, incubated O/N at 4 °C. Species-specific secondary antibodies (Jackson) diluted in blocking buffer were added and incubated for 2–3 h at RT. Nuclei were stained with Hoechst (1/1000 in PBS) and mounted using FluorSave mounting media. The following primary antibodies were used: rat monoclonal anti-Endomucin (sc-65495, Santa Cruz, diluted 1/200), goat polyclonal anti-CD31 (AF3628, R&D, diluted 1/100), rat monoclonal CD41 FITC‐conjugated (MWReg30, Biolegend, diluted 1/50). All secondary antibodies were from Jackson ImmunoResearch and diluted 1/200.
Images were acquired using a LSM 880 Airyscan Confocal microscope (Zeiss), and processed and analyzed using Zen (Zeiss) and Fiji softwares.

Cultures were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS. Primary antibodies against NFH (Abcam, ab72996; 1∶1000), synapsin-I (Millipore, AB1543P; 1∶100), activated caspase-3 (BioVision, 3015–100; 1∶100) and phosphorylated (S473) Akt (Abcam ab66138; 1∶200) were diluted in blocking solution (5% donkey serum, 1 mg/ml BSA IgG and protease free, in PBS) and incubated overnight at 4°C. Samples were incubated with species-specific secondary antibodies (Jackson Immunoresearch) for 2 h at room temperature. TMR-conjugated α-bungarotoxin (Sigma, T0195) staining for evidence of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) clusters was performed at 1 µg/ml in PBS for 15 min prior to cell permeabilization and primary antibody incubation. For visualization of nuclei in myotubes, Hoechst 33258 (1 µg/ml) or DAPI was used for live or fixed samples, respectively. After the staining protocol was completed, MFC was peeled from the dish by gently pulling it from the proximal to distal side, to minimize severing of axons. Prolong mounting medium was added and covered with a #1.5, 18×18 mm coverslide.

Protein Extraction and Western Blotting from Tissue Samples

Cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (Sigma) with Complete Mini Protease Inhibitor (Roche). Lysates from MDPC-23 cells seeded in PLG scaffolds and rat dental pulp tissue were prepared by mincing with scissors in lysis buffer. This was followed by repeated sonication (Sonics) in lysis buffer on ice. Lysates were centrifuged at 14,000 rpm at 4°C for 20 min, and total protein was estimated with a Bradford assay (BCA, Thermo Scientific Inc.). Protein lysates were separated in precast tris-glycine or tris-acetate gels and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (both Invitrogen). Blots were incubated with various primary antibodies (table S3) at 4°C overnight. After washes, blots were incubated with appropriate species-specific secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories), and chemiluminescence (Thermo Scientific Inc.) was detected by films (Kodak MR, Sigma-Aldrich). Images were scanned digitally; brightness and contrast were adjusted for the whole image wherever appropriate.

Whole-mounted retinas were stained in accordance with a previous report [21 (link)]. Briefly, enucleated eyes of P7 WT and Exoc3l KO mice
were fixed for 20 min in 4% PFA at RT. A small hole was made in the cornea using a 27 G needle, and a circular incision was introduced using fine scissors. Subsequently, retinal cups were
dissected from the eyes and post-fixed for 30 min in 4% PFA at 4°C. Primary antibodies were rabbit anti-neuron-glial antigen-2 (NG2) (1:200; Millipore-Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and hamster
anti-PECAM1 (1:1000; Abcam, Cambridge, UK ). Secondary antibodies were species-specific secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Inc., West Grove, PA, USA) or streptavidin
coupled to Alexa Fluor dyes (Invitrogen). Nuclei were counterstained with 10 µg/ml Hoechst 33342 (Molecular Probes Inc., Eugene, OR, USA) for 10 min at RT. Whole retinas
were mounted using ProLongTM Gold Antifade Mountant (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Confocal images were acquired under a TCS-SP8 microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). Fluorescence
was produced using a 552 nm laser for Cy3, a 488 nm laser for Alexa Fluor 488, and a 405 nm UV laser for Hoechst 33342 and 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Z-stack images were obtained
every 5 µm. The hybrid detector HyD (Leica) was used for signal amplification. Projection images were created by 3D viewer software (Leica) from z-stack images.

Briefly, tissue was fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and dehydrated by passing through sequential increases in sucrose before embedding in OCT (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Sections were permeabilized with methanol and rinsed with PBS before incubation in blocking buffer (5% BSA and 0.05% Tween 20). CTBs were labeled with rat anti-cytokeratin 7 (1:100, Damsky et al., 1992 (link)) with: PD-L1 (1:100, Cell Signaling, #13684), p62/SQSTM1 (1:100, Novus Biologicals, #H00008878-M01) or NID1 (1:500, R&D Systems, AF2570) for 1 h at 37°C. After three additional PBS washes, primary antibodies were detected using species-specific secondary antibodies (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch Labs, see Table S4). Sections were mounted using Vectashield with DAPI (Vector Laboratories). Images were acquired using a Leica DM5000 B inverted microscope. Antibodies and their sources are described in Table S4. Tissue sections from at least four placentas were evaluated for each condition.

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.
