Background: mGluR1

The Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mGluR1 binds L-glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, which activates both ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. mGluR1 and mGluR5 are group I receptors that have been shown to activate phospholipase C. Alternative splice variants of the mGluR1 gene have been described, but their full-length nature has not been determined. Inflammation results in the activation of mGluR1 and mGluR5 in dorsal horn neurons of the spinal cord, leading to extracellular signalregulated kinase (ERK) activation, which is required for nociceptive plasticity and enhanced pain. mGluR1 has been reported in various regions of the brain and spinal cord. ESTs have been isolated from brain and eye libraries. Caution: GLUR1 refers to Ionotropic Glutamate Receptor 1, not to Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 (mGLUR1).

Immunohistochemistry Protocol for metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 Antibody (NLS879):
Immunohistochemistry

1. Prepare tissue with formalin fixation and by embedding it in paraffin wax.
2. Make 4 um sections and place on pre-cleaned and charged microscope slides.
3. Heat in a tissue-drying oven for 45 minutes @ 60 degrees Celcius.
4. Deparaffinize the tissues by wash drying the slides in 3 changes of xylene for 5 minutes each @ RT.
5. Rehydrate the tissues by washing the slides in 3 changes of 100% alcohol for 3 minutes each @ RT.
6. Wash the slides in 2 changes of 95% alcohol for 3 minutes each @ RT.
7. Wash the slides in 1 change of 80% alcohol for 3 minutes @ RT.
8. Rinse the slides in gentle running distilled water for 5 minutes @ RT.
9. Perform antigen retrieval by steaming the slides in 0.01M sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) @ 99-100 degrees Celcius
for 20 minutes.
10. Remove the slides from the heat and let stand in buffer @ RT for 20 minutes.
11. Rinse the slides in 1X TBS-T for 1 minute @ RT.

**Do not allow the tissues to dry at any time during the staining procedure**

12. Begin the immunostaining by applying a universal protein block for 20 minutes @ RT.
13. Drain protein block from the slides and apply the diluted primary antibody for 45 minutes @ RT.
14. Rinse the slide in 1X TBS-T for 1 minute @ RT.
15. Apply a biotinylated anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary for 30 minutes @ RT.
16. Rinse the slide in 1X TBS-T for 1 minute @ RT.
17. Apply an alkaline phosphatase steptavidin for 30 minutes @ RT.
18. Rinse the slide in 1X TBS-T for 1 minute @ RT.
19. Apply an alkaline phosphatase chromagen substrate for 30 minutes @ RT.
20. Rinse the slide in distilled water for 1 minute @ RT.

**This method should only be used if the chromagen substrate is alcohol insoluble (ie: Vector Red, DAB)**

21. Dehydrate the tissue by washing the slides in 2 changes of 80% alcohol for 1 minute each @ RT.
22. Wash the slides in 2 changes of 95% alcohol for 1 minute each @ RT.
23. Wash the slides in 3 changes of 100% alcohol for 1 minute each @ RT.
24. Wash the slides in 3 changes of xylene for 1 minute each @ RT.
25. Apply cover slip.
