IHC: 1 : 500 (see remarks) gallery  
IHC-P: 1 : 1000 up to 1 : 2000 gallery  
ELISA: not tested yet

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.

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.

Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 108 to 128 from mouse Vcam1 (UniProt Id: Q3UPN1)

Background

Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1 or CD106) is an endothelial adhesion molecule of the Ig gene superfamily, that regulates leukocyte migration from the blood into tissues (1). Expression of VCAM1 is induced on endothelial cells during inflammatory diseases in response to a number of inflammatory stimuli, including TNFα, lipopolysaccharide or high levels of reactive oxygen species (2). VCAM1 expression in hematopoietic cells is restricted to cells confined to tissues e.g., red pulp macrophages and follicular dendritic cells in the spleen, whereas circulating cells are virtually devoid of VCAM1 (3). VCAM1 has been found to be implicated in various immunological disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, transplant rejection and cancer and is therefore a potential therapeutic target (4).
