Anti desmin antibody

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in Australia

The anti-desmin antibody is a protein-based reagent used in research applications to detect the presence and distribution of the desmin protein, a structural component found in muscle cells. This antibody can be utilized in various techniques, such as immunohistochemistry and Western blotting, to facilitate the study of muscle tissue and related research areas.

Frozen slides with mouse kidney tissue were fixed in acetone, blocked, then incubated with primary antibodies, including anti-podocin antibody (1:100; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), anti-desmin antibody (1:100; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), anti-Asm antibody (1:100; LSBio, Seattle, WA), anti-Cre antibody (1:100; Millipore, Temecula, CA), anti-ceramide antibody (1:100; ALEXIS, Farmingdale, NY), anti-NLRP3 antibody (1:50; Abcam, Cambridge, MA), anti-ASC antibody (1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), anti-Ly6G antibody (1:50; Abcam, Cambridge, MA), anti-VPS16 antibody (1:50; proteintech, Rosemont, IL), and anti-Lamp-1 antibody (1:50; Abcam, Cambridge, MA), overnight at 4°C. Immunofluorescent staining was accomplished by incubating slides with Alexa-488 or Alexa-594-labeled secondary antibodies (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) for 1 hour at room temperature [34 (link)]. Slides were washed, mounted, and observed by a confocal laser scanning microscope (FluoView FV1000, Olympus, Tokyo, Japan). Image Pro Plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, Bethesda, MD) was used to analyze colocalization which was expressed as Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC).

Approximately 4 µg of protein, as determined by a BCA assay, was loaded onto NuPAGE Novex 4–12% BIS/Tris gels (ThermoFisher Scientific) and fractionated at 200 volts until the bromophenol blue marker was at the bottom of the gel. Gel contents were then transferred onto Pall FluoroTrans membranes (Fisher Biotec Wembley, Australia) and probed with rabbit anti-GAA antibody (Abcam, cat. no. 137068, Melbourne, Australia)26 (link) at 1:1,000 dilution, anti-desmin antibody (ThermoFisher Scientific, cat. no. PA5-16705)62 (link) at 1:5,000 dilution, mouse monoclonal anti-β-tubulin antibody (DSHB, cat. no. E7, Iowa City, Iowa)63 (link) at 1:2,000–6,000 dilution and mouse monoclonal anti-β-actin antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, cat. no. A5316)64 (link) at 1:100,000 dilution overnight at 4 °C. Polyclonal goat anti-rabbit or anti-mouse immunoglobulins/HRP (Dako, cat. no P0448 and D0447 respectively, North Sydney, Australia) at a dilution of 1:10,000 and Luminata Crescendo Western HRP substrate (Merk Millipore, Bayswater, Australia) were used for immunodetection and a serial scan of 30 s was performed using Fusion FX system (Vilber Lourmat, Marne-la-Vallée, France). The entire image was processed and densitometric analysis was performed using ImageJ (NIH; https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/download.html)65 (link).

For immunohistochemical analysis, mouse liver sections were deparaffinized, rehydrated and incubated with anti-desmin antibody (1:200, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Fremont, CA), anti-α-SMA antibody (1:200, Abcam, Cambridge, MA) or anti-F4/80 (1:200, eBioscience, San Diego, CA) and stained using DAKO Envision system (DAKO Corp., Carpinteria, CA). The area of positive staining was measured in low-power (x10) fields on each slide and quantified using NIH imaging software. For immunofluorescent staining, the sections were incubated with anti-HNE (1:200, Alpha Diagnostics, San Antonio, TX), anti-PCNA (1:200, Biolegend Inc., San Diego, CA), anti-desmin (1:200, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Fremont, CA), or anti-Ki67 (1:200, GeneTEX, INC. Irvine, CA) antibodies and Alexa Fluor 594- and Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:200, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and imaged with fluorescent microscopy.

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.
