IHC image of Iba1 staining in human normal hippocampus formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6 epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab178846 at 1/2000 dilution for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Chromogenic multiplex immunohistochemical staining of FFPE normal human cerebellum tissue. ab177487, anti-NeuN DAB chromogen. ab68428, anti-GFAP purple chromogen and ab178846, anti- Iba1 teal chromogen plus haematoxylin counterstain. Chromogenic immunostaining was performed on a Roche Ventana Discovery Ultra instrument. The section was deparaffinised and incubated with CC1 solution for 24min 100°C. Following this with 3 rounds of staining in the order of ab177487 (1/600), ab178846 (1/4000) ab68428 (1/1000). Between rounds of staining, antibody denaturation was conducted using Ultra CC2 solution for 8min at 100°C to avoid cross reactivity. Signal was developed with anti-rabbit HQ followed by anti-HQ HRP coupled with Chromomap DAB kit, Discovery purple or Discovery teal chromogens and haematoxylin II counterstain.

Composite multiplex immunofluorescence staining of Iba1, GFAP and MAP2 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human cerebral cortex*.

Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (Ph9.0) using retrieval settings of 100°C for 40 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab323239 at 5µg/ml dilution (shown in green), ab300645 at 5µg/ml (shown in magenta), and ab178846 at 5µg/ml (shown in yellow). Then incubated for 1 hour with ab150119 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 647) preadsorbed 1/1000, ab150084 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed 1/1000, and ab150173 Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed 1/1000. Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium ®.

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

Anti-Iba1 ab178846 was used with Tissue clearing kit – CUBIC (ab316246) and 3D Tissue Staining Kit – CUBIC (ab316248) to penetrate stain and clear a whole mouse brain.

Learn more about tissue clearing kits reagents and protocols designed to make it easier to stain whole brains and get more data from each valuable tissue sample.

For a whole mouse brain we recommend starting with 3.5 ug of ab178846 and using a Fab fragment secondary antibody with 2.34 µg to create an antibody complex before 3D staining (see protocol for details). Additive A was used during the staining process.

The sample was imaged using a light-sheet microscope.

Abcam recommends blocking in milk for cleaner blots with reduced background, in comparison to BSA.

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-Tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 60 minutes before being transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour before being incubated with ab178846 (anti-Iba1 antibody; 1/500 dilution) for 18 hours at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using ab97040 (HRP-labelled goat anti-mouse IgG) at 1 : 50,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature and visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.

特異性

For ab178846 Abcam recommends blocking in 3% milk for cleanest results in WB. Blocking with BSA gives slightly higher background.

Iba1 is a relatively minor protein of brain and is much more abundant in spleen (PMID: 8912632, PMID: 29232670). We suggest loading higher amount of brain lysate or using lower dilution of antibody for detecting signal in brain related lysates

NEW: Explore our alternative host species for clone [EPR16588] : goat, chicken, rat. Iba1 (AIF1) is a marker for microglia, the brain's primary immune cells and is frequently used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) research. In AD brains, altered Iba1 expression indicates microglial activation and neuroinflammation. Researchers use Iba1 to assess microglial response and motility in AD models, making it essential for understanding the role of inflammation and immune response in Alzheimer's pathology.

補足情報

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Iba1 also known as allograft inflammatory factor 1 (AIF1) is a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 17 kDa. It is widely expressed in microglia which are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS). Iba1 plays a mechanical role in actin-binding and modulating cytoskeleton dynamics which affects cell shape and motility. It is also found in other myeloid-derived cells including macrophages and monocytes where it influences cellular processes linked to inflammation and immune responses.
Biological function summary

The involvement of Iba1 in actin polymerization impacts microglia's ability to perform phagocytosis and cytokine production. Iba1 does not appear to be part of any large protein complex but interacts directly with actin filaments to facilitate cytoskeletal reorganization. This function enables the cells to move and respond efficiently to tissue damage or pathogens in the CNS. It plays an important role in supporting cellular changes associated with immune surveillance and neuroinflammatory responses.

Pathways

Microglial activation relies heavily on Iba1 for executing acts linked with neuroinflammation. Iba1 engages in the NF-κB signaling pathway significant in managing inflammatory responses. It interacts with proteins such as MyD88 and IRAK4 which aid in transmitting signals from toll-like receptors. These pathways enable changes in gene expression critical for microglial response to various stimuli. Furthermore Iba1 also contributes to the PI3K/Akt pathway where it influences cell survival and proliferation interacting with proteins like Akt1 and PTEN.

Iba1 has implications in neurodegenerative diseases notably Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. In Alzheimer's disease increased expression of Iba1 is observed in activated microglia around amyloid plaques suggesting a role in plaque clearance and neuroinflammation. The protein relates to amyloid precursor protein (APP) as microglia respond to abnormal accumulations. In multiple sclerosis Iba1 expression marks activated microglia involved in demyelination processes where it associates with proteins like myelin basic protein (MBP) highlighting its role in the disease's pathology.
