Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Calretinin Antibody [NBP3-05530]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Calretinin Antibody [NBP3-05530] - Immunofluorescent analysis of a section of rat hippocampus section stained with Calretinin Antibody at a at a dilution of of 1:2,000 in green and costained with chicken pAb to parvalbumin at a at a dilution of of 1:1,000, in red. The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. Following transcardial perfusion of rat with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45uM, and free-floating sections were stained with above antibodies. The calretinin and parvalbumin antibodies stain different subsets of GABAergic interneurons.

Background: Calretinin

Calretinin (CAB29, calbindin 2) is a calcium binding protein that belongs to calbindin family. It is mainly found in neuronal tissue, high expressed in auditory neurons. It has been implicated in as a calcium buffer, calcium sensor, and as a regulator of apoptosis (1). Calretinin is considered as a specific marker of mesothelllal cells; it is the only marker that has the utility in distinguishing between sarcomatoid mesotheliomas and sarcomatoid renal cell carcinomas (2). It is widely used in the panel of makers for distinguishing mesothlioma from adenocarcinoma. Along with calretinin, the panel includes E-cadherin, CEA, and cytokeratin 5/6 (3).
