Fitc conjugated pac1 antibody

Manufactured by BD

The FITC-conjugated PAC1 antibody is a fluorescently labeled monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the PAC1 receptor. PAC1 is a G protein-coupled receptor that plays a role in various physiological processes. The FITC (Fluorescein Isothiocyanate) label allows for the detection and visualization of PAC1-expressing cells using fluorescence-based techniques.

Platelet Activation and Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PAC1 assay was used to analyze activation of GP2B3A receptor on platelet surface as described44 . This assay uses an antibody that binds specifically to activated conformation of human GP2B3A receptor and not to its resting form44 . The pretreated washed platelets were used for this assay. The FITC conjugated PAC1 antibody (340507, BD Biosciences) was added to washed platelets and after 20 min incubation before acquiring the events on flow cytometer. For apoptosis assay, the pretreated washed platelets were incubated with 1 μM tetramethylrhodamine methyl ester (TMRE) reagent (T669, Thermo Fisher Scientific) at 37 °C for 15 min followed by staining with annexin-V for 15 min in apoptosis assay buffer, as described45 . This assay quantifies the cells with depolarized mitochondrial membrane and exposed phosphatidyl serine on the platelet surface. For both the assays, 3 × 104 events were acquired using special order BD LSR II Cell Analyzer (BD Biosciences) and data were analyzed by FlowJo v10 (FlowJo LLC).

Monocyte-Platelet Aggregation and Activation

As previously described, 14 (link) monocyte platelet aggregation (MPA) was measured via whole blood flow cytometry using the Accuri 6 system. Immediately following phlebotomy, whole blood was fixed with formaldehyde in 1.4× Hanks balanced saline solution. Blood was labeled with monoclonal antibodies CD14-PE (BD Pharmingen) and CD42a-FITC (BD Pharmingen); diluted 4.6-fold with distilled water to lyse the erythrocytes; and further diluted in an equal volume of HEPES–Tyrode’s buffer, pH 7.4. Monocytes were identified by their staining with CD14-PE and by their characteristic orthogonal light scatter. The percentage of MPA was identified in single parameter histograms of CD42a-FITC fluorescence displaying events from the monocyte gate. The positive analysis region was determined using an IgG-FITC conjugated isotypic control. A minimum of 2,000 monocytes was counted per test.
Platelet activity was also assessed by activation of the platelet integrin αIIbβ3 activity using a FITC-conjugated PAC-1 antibody (BD Biosciences). Platelets were labeled with anti CD42b PE antibody (BD Biosciences). The mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) was assessed within a participant gated sample of approximately 10,000 platelets.

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.
