Background of MUC2
Mucin 2, also known as MUC2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the mucin protein family. It is mapped to 11p15.5. Mucin 2 is particularly prominent in the gut where it is secreted from goblet cells in the epithelial lining into the lumen of the large intestine. There, mucin 2, along with small amounts of related-mucin proteins, polymerizes into a gel of which 80% by weight is oligosaccharide side-chains that are added as post-translational modifications to the mucin proteins. This gel provides an insoluble mucous barrier that serves to protect the intestinal epithelium. The primary function of the MUC2 gene product is to provide a protective barrier between the epithelial surfaces and the gut lumen. There is decreased expression of MUC2 in colonic cancer and defective polymerization of secreted mucin in ulcerative colitis.

IHC analysis of MUC2 using anti-MUC2 antibody (A01212).
MUC2 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human colon cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 μg/ml rabbit anti-MUC2 Antibody (A01212) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) (Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.

IL-22 is the key cytokine underlying the effects of the human infant Th17-conditioned media. (A) Experimental design for enteroid stimulation. (B) Representative immunofluorescent staining of Ki67 (red), E-cadherin (green), and DAPI (blue) in infant enteroids cultured in control media (left), control media supplemented with infant Th17-conditioned media (middle), or control media plus Th17-conditioned media plus neutralizing anti-IL-22 (right) (Scale bars, 50 μm). (C, E) Fluorescence intensity of Ki67 and MUC2 per enteroid relative to DAPI following exposure to Th17-conditioned media. (technical replicates n=5; N= 4 individuals, statistical difference calculated by one-way ANOVA). Enteroids exposed to infant Th17-conditioned media showed more goblet cell (MUC2) staining as compared to control, and Th17-conditioned media plus neutralizing IL-22 groups (Scale bar, 50 μm). (D) Infant enteroids stimulated by neonatal Th17-conditioned media display increased goblet cell numbers/size as indicated by increased MUC2 intensity per enteroid. MUC2 intensity was normalized to DAPI (technical replicates n=5; N= 4 individuals, statistical differences calculated by t-test **P < 0.01, *** P <0.001, **** P <0.0001) (Scale bar, 50 μm). Enteroid samples used N001, N002, N011 and N012.

Asked: 2019-06-18
Answer
The anti-MUC2 antibody (A01212) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
Our lab used your anti-MUC2 antibody for IF on intestine in the past. I am using human, and I plan to use the antibody for IHC next. We want examining intestine as well as cervix carcinoma in our next experiment. Do you have any suggestion on which antibody would work the best for IHC?

Asked: 2016-11-08
Answer
I looked at the website and datasheets of our anti-MUC2 antibody and it seems that A01212 has been tested on human in both IF and IHC. Thus A01212 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for IHC in human even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for IHC detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.
