Anti-Tau 抗体 [TAU-5] - BSA and Azide free (ab80579)

Tau cleavage products are shown between 70kDa and 50kDa.

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 55 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before ab80579 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1ug/ml concentration and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Antibody binding was detected using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

ab80579 staining Tau-5 in SHSY5Y cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1%PBS-Triton X100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab80579 at 5μg/ml and ab6046, Rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin - Loading Control, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150084, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolor red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

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

Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab80579 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum (ab7481) / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab80579, 1µg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

ICC/IF image of ab80579 stained SKNSH cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum (ab7481) / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab80579, 10µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was ab96879, DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor^® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

ab80579 staining tau in SKNSH cells treated with prostaglandin J2 (ab120913), by ICC/IF. Expression of tau expression is restringed to the perinuclear zone with increased concentration of prostaglandin J2, as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 6 hours in media containing different concentrations of ab120913 (prostaglandin J2) in DMSO, fixed with 100% methanol for 5 minutes at -20°C and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab80579 (10 μg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight^® 488 anti-mouse polyclonal antibody (ab96879) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei (blue) were counterstained with DAPI and membrane is was stained using WGA (red).
