Rat anti brdu antibody

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies
Sourced in Denmark

The Rat anti-BrdU antibody is a laboratory reagent used to detect the presence of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation in cells. BrdU is a thymidine analog that is incorporated into the DNA of cells during DNA synthesis, allowing for the identification of proliferating cells. The Rat anti-BrdU antibody specifically binds to the incorporated BrdU, enabling researchers to visualize and quantify cell proliferation using techniques such as immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry.

Identifying Neurogenesis in Traumatic Brain Injury

Newly generated neurons in the DG were identified by double labeling for BrdU and NeuN after TBI [43] (link). Briefly, after being deparaffinized and rehydrated, tissue sections were boiled in 10 mM citric acid buffer (pH 6) for 10 min. After washing with PBS, sections were incubated in 2.4 N HCl at 37°C for 20 min. Sections were incubated with 1% BSA containing 0.3% Triton-X-100 in PBS. Sections were then incubated with mouse anti-NeuN antibody (1∶200; Chemicon, Temecula, CA) at 4°C overnight. For negative controls, primary antibodies were omitted. FITC-conjugated anti-mouse antibody (1∶400; Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA) was added to sections at room temperature for 2 h. Sections were then incubated with rat anti-BrdU antibody (1∶200; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) at 4°C overnight. Sections were then incubated with Cy3-conjugated anti-rat antibody (1∶400; Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA) at room temperature for 2 h. Each of the steps was followed by three 5-min rinses in PBS. Tissue sections were mounted with Vectashield mounting medium (Vector laboratories, Burlingame, CA).

Double immunostaining was performed to identify newly generated endothelial cells (BrdU/EBA+) and newly formed mature neurons (BrdU/NeuN+) 35 days after injury. Briefly, after being deparaffinized and rehydrated, brain sections were boiled in 10 mM citric acid buffer (pH 6) for 10 minutes. After washing with PBS, sections were incubated in 2.4 N HCl at 37°C for 20 minutes. Sections were incubated with 1% bovine serum albumin containing 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS. Sections were then incubated with mouse anti-NeuN antibody (1:200; Chemicon) or anti-EBA at 4°C overnight. For negative controls, primary antibodies were omitted. Fluorescein isothiocyanate–conjugated anti–mouse antibody (1:400; Jackson ImmunoResearch) was added to sections at room temperature for 2 hours. Sections were then incubated with rat anti-BrdU antibody (1:200; Dako) at 4°C overnight, and subsequently incubated with Cy3-conjugated goat anti–rat antibody (1:400; Jackson ImmunoResearch) at room temperature for 2 hours. Each of the steps was followed by three 5-minute rinses in PBS. Tissue sections were mounted with Vectashield mounting medium (Vector Laboratories).

Newly generated endothelial cells and newborn mature neurons in the lesion boundary zone and dentate gyrus 35 days after TBI were identified by double labeling for BrdU with EBA or NeuN, respectively. Briefly, after being deparaffinized and rehydrated, brain sections were boiled in 10 mM citric acid buffer (pH 6) for 10 minutes. After washing with PBS, sections were incubated in 2.4 N HCl at 37°C for 20 minutes. Sections were incubated with 1% BSA containing 0.3% Triton-X-100 in PBS. Sections were then incubated with mouse anti-NeuN antibody (1:200; Chemicon, Temecula, CA) or anti-EBA at 4°C overnight. For negative controls, primary antibodies were omitted. FITC-conjugated anti-mouse antibody (1:400; Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA) was added to sections at room temperature for 2 hours. Sections were then incubated with rat anti-BrdU antibody (1:200; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) at 4°C overnight.

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.
