Rabbit anti iba1 antibody

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom

The Rabbit anti-Iba1 antibody is a primary antibody that specifically recognizes the Iba1 (Ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1) protein. Iba1 is a protein involved in the activation and regulation of microglia, the immune cells of the central nervous system. This antibody can be used to detect and study the Iba1 protein in various research applications.

Mouse hippocampi were formalin fixed and embedded in paraffin. Hematoxylin counterstaining was performed at the end. used to provide cytologic detail. Standard procedures of peroxidase-attached streptavidin and 3,3’-diaminobenzidine (DAB) as a substrate were sequentially used. Direct fluorescence was used to detect RFP. Immunostaining was done using rabbit anti-SPC25 antibody (Abcam, Dallas, TX, USA), rabbit anti-IBA-1 antibody (Abcam), rabbit anti-Aβ antibody (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), or goat anti-phosphorylated Tau (p-Tau) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) or rabbit anti-PHF1 antibody (Abcam) antibodies. For quantitating neuronal cell loss, PHF-1+ neuronal positive cells were analyzed throughout the CA1 region of the hippocampus. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for Aβ and pTau was performed using specific kits (R&D System, Los Angeles, CA, USA) as instructed.

Mice were perfused transcardially with ice-cold 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH=7.2) at 0 and 14 days after injury. The spinal cords were removed and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde. Fifteen-micrometer sections were prepared on a cryostat. Longitudinal section was made in order to show the structure of injured spinal cord well. The sections were blocked by using normal goat serum with 0.2% Triton-X 100 for 30 min at room temperature, and then incubated with Mouse Anti-HSP70 antibody (abcam) and Rabbit Anti-Iba1 antibody (abcam) overnight at 4oC and followed by staining with the corresponding secondary antibodies (Alexa Fluor 488 or 594, 1:800, Jackson Immuno Research) for 1 h at 37°C.

After conventional dewaxing, coronal sections were incubated with rabbit anti-Iba-1 antibody (1:200, Abcam) or mouse anti-iNOS antibody (1:50, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA)
mixture overnight at 4°C. The sections were then treated with a Cy3-labeled goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (1:200, Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and
FITC-labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (1:200, Abcam) for 90 min at room temperature. Finally, sections were counterstained with DAPI (Aladdin Holdings Group Co., Ltd.) to stain
cellular nuclei. Fluorescent signals were detected under a fluorescence microscope (400× magnification, Olympus). Iba-1/iNOS-double-positive cells were considered M1 microglia, and the
percentages of M1 microglia in total cells (DAPI positive) and in microglia (Iba-1 positive) were calculated.

After euthanizing the mice, their midbrains were removed and fixed using 4% paraformaldehyde. Then the midbrain was placed in 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, and 100% alcohol for one hour each for dehydration. Then it was dipped in xylene for 30 min and immersed in wax for 60 min. The midbrain tissue was then sectioned (6 μm per slice) and dried. Dopaminergic neurons in SN were measured with rabbit anti-TH antibody (1:500, while microglia were detected with rabbit anti-IBA-1 antibody (1:500; Abcam, Cambridge, UK). The IHC staining was performed according to the instructions of the immunohistochemistry kit (Biological Technology, Wuhan, China). Finally, total TH and IBA-1-positive cells were counted by five researchers in a blinded fashion (who were unaware of the experimental design), and the average of these scores was reported. At least 3 slices per mouse were counted in the study.

Two primary antibodies were used to label different populations of RGCs. The general population was labelled using a mouse anti-Brn3a antibody (1:500; mouse anti-Brn3a, MAB1585 Millipore, Madrid, Spain), and the ipRGCs were labelled with a rabbit anti-melanopsin antibody (1:500; rabbit anti-melanopsin; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Microglial and macroglial (Müller cells and astrocytes) cells were labelled with rabbit anti-Iba 1 antibody (1:500; rabbit anti-Iba1; Abcam, USA, Waltham, MA, USA), goat anti-GFAP antibody (1:500; goat anti-GFAP; Abcam, USA) and goat anti-vimentin antibody (1:250, C-20, sc-7557; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA).

Per our protocols, 25 (link) endogenous peroxidase was blocked with 2 % H 2 O 2 /methanol for 30 min and antigen retrieval in sodium citrate buffer (10 mM, pH 6.0) at 85 °C for 30 min. Sections were incubated with blocking buffer followed by primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight, including Rat anti-neutrophil monoclonal antibody (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), rabbit anti-Iba1 antibody (Abcam, Waltham, MA), or rabbit anti-B220 antibody (Abcam), then incubated with biotinylated secondary antibodies for 2 hrs. The signal was visualized with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine (DAB). IgG control staining was performed following identical procedures excluding primary antibodies, which showed no positive signal (Fig. S5). Images were taken by a Nikon ECLIPSE E600 microscope with Nikon Elements software. Numbers of neutrophils, macrophages, and B cells (brown signal) and total cells (blue-purple hematoxylin stained nuclei) per unit area were counted (Supplementary Materials).

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.
