Anti opn antibody

Manufactured by R&D Systems
Sourced in United States

The Anti-OPN antibody is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and quantification of osteopontin (OPN) in various samples. OPN is a protein involved in various biological processes. The antibody can be used in techniques such as Western blotting, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry to measure OPN levels.

Tissue Microarray Analysis of HCC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissue-microarray (TMA) slides containing 58 HCC samples were purchased from SuperBioChips Laboratories (Seoul, Korea, www.tissue-array.com). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for OPN and EGFR on serially sectioned TMA slides was carried out using the BOND-MAX automated immunostainer (Leica Microsystems, Bannockburn, IL, USA) with the Bond Polymer Refine detection kit (Leica). Anti-OPN antibody (1:50; R&D Systems) or anti-EGFR antibody (1:100; Ventana Medical Systems, Oro Valley, AZ, USA) were employed as the primary antibody. Each stain was assessed according to the intensity (negative, 0; weak, 1; moderate, 2; intense, 3) and area (none, 0; focal, 1; multifocal, 2; diffuse, 3) of positive cells. The overall grade of each stain was obtained by multiplying the area score by the intensity score (negative, 0; weak, 1 or 2; moderate, 3 or 4; intense, 6 or 9).

Aortic Histopathology and Macrophage Infiltration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were euthanized, tissues pressure perfused with saline and fixed with 10% buffered formalin. Whole aortas were excised and paraffin embedded. Sections (5 lm) were stained with hemotoxylin & Eosin (H&E) for morphology and immunostained with Mac3 antibody (BD Pharmingen) to determine macrophage infiltration. Medial thickness was analyzed using NIH Image J. For the OPN antibody staining, antigen retrieval was performed using protease K (10 μg/mL) for 30 min, before incubation with anti-OPN antibody (R&D), followed by incubation with -anti-goat secondary antibody (Vector Labs) and incubation with Streptavidin QDot 655 (Invitrogen). Images were acquired with a Zeiss Axioskope microscope equipped with an AxioCam camera.

Generation and Validation of MMP-Cleaved OPN

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human recombinant full-length OPN (flOPN) (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ) was used for cell experiments. To obtain MMP-cleaved OPN (MMP-cOPN), 1 mg of OPN per ml was incubated with 0.5 ng per ml of MMP-7 (Millipore, Billerica, MA) for 4 h at 37 C in assay buffer (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, CaCl 2 2.5 mM, Brij-35 0.05%, pH adjusted to 7.6 with HCl) as earlier described (10) , of note the related "vehicle" controls included the same amount of MMP-7. Cleavage was evaluated qualitatively by immunoblotting according to Ref. 10) using a polyclonal anti-OPN antibody (RD-Systems, Minneapolis, MN).

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.
