Rat anti pecam1

Manufactured by BD

Rat anti-PECAM1 is a monoclonal antibody that binds to the Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 (PECAM1), also known as CD31. PECAM1 is a cell adhesion molecule expressed on the surface of endothelial cells, platelets, and certain immune cells. It plays a role in cell-cell interactions and the regulation of vascular permeability.

Whole-Mount Immunohistochemistry for Tissue Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Whole-mount immunohistochemistry was performed using a modification of
the protocol from Ahnfelt-Rønne et al.
(2007)
as previously described (Havrilak and Shannon, 2015b (link)). Optical sections were captured on a
Nikon AiRsi inverted laser microscope, and 3D images were created by a composite
of z-stacks using Bitplane Imaris software to process the fluorescent images. To
calculate the volume of tissue stained for ALB, we created isosurfaces using
smoothing thresholds and intensity values that allowed filtering out antibody
aggregates or any non-specific staining.
The primary antibodies used were: rabbit anti-NKX2-1 (1:3000, Seven
Hills Bioreagents), guinea pig anti-NKX2-1 (1:500, Seven Hills Bioreagents),
goat anti-endomucin (1:500, R & D Systems), rat anti-E-cadherin (1:2000,
R & D Systems), rabbit anti-PAX8 (1:500, Protein Tech), rat anti-PECAM-1
(1:500, BD Pharmigen), goat anti-HNF4α (1:200, Santa Cruz), goat
anti-PDX1 (1:5000, Abcam), goat anti-ALB (1:1000, Bethyl Laboratories), goat
anti-FOXA2 (1:500, Santa Cruz), and rat anti-LIV2 (1:200, MBL). Secondary
antibodies used were: Alexa Fluor 647 donkey anti-rabbit IgG, Alexa Fluor 568
anti-goat IgG, Alexa Fluor 488 donkey anti-rat IgG, Alexa Fluor 488 donkey
antimouse IgG (1:500, all from Life Technologies).

Briefly, Rbpjf/f and Rbpj−/− pregnant females were killed by cervical dislocation at E8.0. Allantois could be clearly identified at the end of PS in the exocoelom after wiping off the Reichert’s membrane. The floating allantoises were excised at the basal part, rinsed in cold CZB and culture medium three times, respectively, transferred to the 24-well Petri dish that has been coated with fibronectin, and then cultured for 24 h. The allantois explants were fixed in 4% PFA, permeabilized in 0.2% Triton X-100, and incubated with rat anti-PECAM1 (1:500, BD) overnight at 4 °C. Then they were washed in 0.1% BSA–PBS, incubated with the Cy3-labeled secondary antibody.

On average about 50 optical sections were collected, representing about 50 μm deep volume, with 1.19 μm step size. The images shown are maximum intensity projections.
BMDMs were seeded at d5 on 4 chamber tissue culture treated glass slides (Falcon, 354104) and treated the following day. The cells were fixed in 4% PFA for 30 min at room temperature. Permeabilized in 0.25% Triton X-100 (w/v) and blocked in 5% BSA (w/v) and 0.05% Triton X-100 (w/v). Staining was performed with p65 (CST, 8242) for 2 h at room temperature followed by labeling with donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 711-165-152) and 1:2000 Hoechst (H3569). The cells were mounted with ProLong Glass Antifade Mountant (P36980). Images were acquired using a LEICA SP8 inverted microscope with a 40x objective.

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.
