Hif 1α antibody

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in United States

The HIF-1α antibody is a laboratory tool used to detect and measure the expression of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) protein. HIF-1α is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the cellular response to low oxygen levels (hypoxia). The antibody can be used in various techniques, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunocytochemistry, to identify and quantify the presence of HIF-1α in biological samples.

A549 cells were seeded in 8‐chambered glass plates. After 24 h incubation, cells were treated with HCl (pH 4.0, DMEM) for 30 min at 37°C in 5% CO2. Control cells were exposed to phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS). After incubation with HCl, the acidified medium was discarded, and the cells were washed thrice with complete media to confirm neutralization. Cells were fixed by adding formaldehyde directly to the cells for 15 min at room temperature. Cells were washed with phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS), permeabilized with 0.2% Triton X‐100 (Sigma‐Aldrich), washed again with PBS twice, and blocked with PBS containing 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA). This cell was followed by incubation in HIF‐1α antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and NF‐kBp65 (Cell Signaling) followed by incubation in Alexa flour labeled secondary antibodies (Invitrogen) for 1 h. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. The cells on coverslips were then mounted in mounting media (Dako), and photomicrographs of the invasive sections were analyzed.27, 51

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.
