Rabbit anti cgas

Manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology
Sourced in United Kingdom, United States

Rabbit anti-cGAS is a primary antibody that binds to the cGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP synthase) protein. cGAS is a key sensor of cytosolic DNA and plays a critical role in the innate immune response. The antibody can be used to detect and study the expression and localization of cGAS in various cellular and experimental systems.

According to our previous report,63 (link) after being deeply anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium, rats were transcardially perfused with 150 mL of 1× PBS (4°C) followed by 150 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde (4°C). Lumbar enlargement of the spinal cord was collected, postfixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 48 h at 4°C, and subsequently dehydrated with 30% sucrose for 3 days at 4°C. Subsequently, the spinal cord was cut transversely into slices with a thickness of 30 μm. The sections were permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 for 10 min and blocked with 10% sheep or donkey serum for 2 h at 24°C. Sections were incubated with the following primary antibodies for 48 h at 4°C: goat-anti-Iba1 (1:200, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), mouse anti-GFAP (1:500, Cell Signaling Technology), mouse-anti-NeuN (1:500, Abcam), rabbit-anti-pTAOK2 (1:100, GeneTex), rabbit-anti-cGAS (1:100, Cell Signaling Technology), and rabbit-anti-STING (1:100, Cell Signaling Technology). After washing with 1× PBS, the sections were incubated with fluorescent secondary antibodies in the dark for 2 h at 24°C. Finally, the sections were examined under a fluorescence microscope (FV3000; Olympus, Japan).

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.
