Rabbit anti myeloperoxidase antibody

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in Germany

Rabbit anti-myeloperoxidase antibody is a primary antibody that specifically binds to the myeloperoxidase protein. Myeloperoxidase is an enzyme expressed in neutrophils and monocytes, and is involved in the production of hypochlorous acid, a potent antimicrobial agent.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of NETs in Kidney Sections

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded kidney sections were blocked with 5% fetal bovine serum, and then the MPO-stained with rabbit anti-myeloperoxidase antibody (Abcam, catalog ab208670) in combination with a second Cy3-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) antibody (Servicebio, catalog GB21303). The chromatin was stained with DAPI (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Colocalization of myeloperoxidase and chromatin was recognized as NETs. Ten glomeruli per animal were analyzed for NET staining and the percentage of NET-stained glomeruli calculated.

Induction and Visualization of NETosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To induce NETosis, freshly isolated bone marrow-derived neutrophils (1.5 × 105) were seeded on poly-L-lysine coated coverslips. Cells were stimulated with 4 μM ionomycin for 3 h. After that, cells were fixed with 4% PFA, blocked and incubated with a polyclonal rabbit anti-myeloperoxidase antibody (1:100, Abcam), or alternatively, with a rabbit anti-histone H3 (citrulline R2+R8+R17) antibody (1:500, Abcam). Cells were further incubated with a secondary goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated antibody (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology), counterstained with DAPI and mounted in Dako fluorescent mounting medium (Dako). NETs were finally visualized using an inverted microscope (Eclipse Ti-U 100, Nikon) and the NIS Elements BR 3.10 software package.

Lung Tissue Analysis: Quantifying MPO and RAGE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Paraffin embedded lungs were sectioned into 5-micron slices and mounted on slides. Serial tissue sections were stained for hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and for myeloperoxidase (MPO) (rabbit anti-myeloperoxidase antibody, 1:8000, abcam) and for RAGE (human anti-RAGE antibody, 50 µg/ml). Secondary staining was performed with HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit or goat anti-human antibody (1:200). Staining for MPO and for RAGE (brown staining) was quantified by IHC on five sections from each lung section using Image Pro Plus software (Media Cybernetics, Silver Spring, MD).

Quantification of Kidney and Liver Oxidative Stress

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Briefly, 4 µm sections of kidney and liver samples were obtained. For nitrotyrosine, the sections were blocked with PBS / 1% BSA (PBA) for 1 h and then incubated with 2% goat serum in PBA for 30 min. For myeloperoxidase, the sections were blocked with 10% goat serum for 15 min.
The slides were then incubated with rabbit anti-nitrotyrosine antibody (1:2000; Merck Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) or with rabbit anti-myeloperoxidase antibody (1:25; Cat# ab9535, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and then incubated with labelled polymer-HRP antibody (Dako EnVision+ System-HRP-DAB, K4010). DAB chromogen solution was used and a counter-staining was performed with Harris haematoxylin. Images were acquired using NanoZoomer Digital Pathology Scanner (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., Japan) and analysed using the NDP Viewer software. The relative quantification of nitrotyrosine immunostaining was achieved through densitometry analysis using NIH ImageJ 1.36 imaging software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA) and it is expressed as arbitrary units.
The number of MPO positive cells was counted in 10 randomly selected fields (x 400) in a doubleblinded manner.

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.
