Anti lc3 1 2

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

Anti-LC3 I/II is a primary antibody that recognizes the microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3), a marker for autophagy. This antibody detects both the cytosolic (LC3-I) and lipidated (LC3-II) forms of LC3, which are essential for the formation of autophagosomes.

Fresh liver tissues were fixed in 10% formaldehyde, dehydrated, embedded in paraffin, sectioned, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). H&E staining of livers was assessed under an optical microscope (Zeiss, Thuringia Germany). Liver injury scores were evaluated in 8 randomly selected, nonoverlapping fields at 200× magnification in each section. The sections were analyzed by two professional pathologists who were blinded to the experimental protocol and scored the liver damage.
To visualize the mitochondria, cells were cultured on cover slips and then incubated using a MitoTracker Red fluorescent probe kit (300 nM at 37°C for 30 minutes; Invitrogen, Waltham, USA). For immunostaining, the cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 at RT. Cells were incubated with the specific primary antibody anti-LC3-II/I (12741, Cell Signaling) at 4°C overnight followed by incubation with a fluorescent secondary antibody. After counterstaining with 4’ 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), the slides were observed using a confocal inverted laser microscope (Zeiss, Germany).

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.
