Anti vimentin v6389

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in Sao Tome and Principe

Anti-vimentin (V6389) is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and analysis of the intermediate filament protein vimentin in biological samples. It is a mouse monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to vimentin, a cytoskeletal protein found in various cell types. The core function of this product is to serve as a tool for researchers and scientists to study the expression and distribution of vimentin in their research applications.

To further characterize the primary cells, total proteins were obtained from the adherent cells at passage 3 by adding ice‐cold RIPA (radioimmunoprecipitation assay) lysis buffer (Servicebio). The equivalent protein (25 μg) was loaded to an SDS‐PAGE gel and then imprinted onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane. The membrane was blocked with 5% skim milk for 1.5 h at room temperature and incubated with a specific primary antibody and an appropriate secondary antibody at −4°C overnight. Antibodies used included the following: anti‐CD31 (bs‐0195R, Bioss Antibodies, 1:500), anti‐vimentin (V6389, Sigma‐Aldrich, 1:2000), anti‐α‐SMA (A2547, Sigma‐Aldrich, 1:1500), anti‐collagen XV (bs‐0547R, Bioss Antibodies, 1:1500) and anti‐β‐actin (bs‐0061r, Bioss Antibodies, 1:5000). The bands on the membrane were developed via a Super ECL (enhanced chemiluminescence) Plus kit (Boster Biological Technology) and recorded via Image Lab software (4600SF, Tanon Science & Technology).

The cytoskeletal isolation fractions were separated using 4% to 15% precast polyacrylamide gels (4568084; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, United States). The gels were then transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (1704271; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, United States) using a transfer system (Trans-Blot Turbo; 1705150; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, United States). The blocking and developing of the membranes were carried out as previously described [44 (link)]. The antibodies used were as follows: anti-vimentin (V6389; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, United States), pan-cytokeratin (ab8068; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-β-actin (A1978; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, United States) and Horseradish-peroxide-conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary antibodies (GtxMu-004-DHRPX; ImmunoReagents, Raleigh, NC, United States). Membranes were stripped after imaging vimentin and pan-keratin, and exposed for 2 min to confirm that the membranes had been stripped, before incubating with β-actin antibody as a loading control.

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.
