Applications
 
WB: 1 : 1000 (AP staining) gallery  
IP: yes
ICC: yes gallery  
IHC: 1 : 500
IHC-P: not recommended
ELISA: yes

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); a frequently employed method to quantify target-molecules in solution. The detection of some proteins requires special solubilization steps. For further information, please refer to the „Remarks“ section.

Background

Nestin is a type VI intermediate filament and is expressed in early embryonic neuroepithelial stem cells during CNS development (1). The protein is downregulated and replaced by other tissue specific intermediate filaments during differentiation (2). Antibodies against Nestin can be employed as predominant markers for stem and progenitor cells in the mammalian CNS.
During neuroinflammation and ischemia, Nestin is upregulated in different CNS cell types (2).
Expression has also been reported for proliferative endothelial cells of various tissues like newly formed blood vessels in brain (3), glomeruli of kidney (4) and skin (5).
