Background of Pcna
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was originally identified by immunofluorescence as a nuclear protein whose appearance correlated with the proliferative state of the cell. PCNA/cyclin has been localized by in situ hybridization to the short arm of human chromosome 20 with a peak of grains over band 20p13. PCNA gene is present in single copy and has 6 exons. It spans 4,961 bp. Synthesis of the nuclear protein cyclin and DNA in quiescent mouse fibroblasts is coordinately induced by serum and purified growth factors. PCNA controls establishment of sister chromatid cohesion during S phase.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Western blot analysis of PCNA using anti-PCNA antibody (MA1083).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Caco-2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human MDA-MB-231 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human Jurkat whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human HT1080 whole cell lysates.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with mouse anti-PCNA antigen affinity purified monoclonal antibody (Catalog # MA1083) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1001) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for PCNA at approximately 35KD. The expected band size for PCNA is at 29KD.

Localization of transplanted cells and in situ proliferation at the infarct border in experimental model . (A-C) are images of coronal cerebral slices showing the impact of occlusion 6 hours post-occlusion, with the infarct appearing as pale area marked with broken line. Hematoxylin and eosin (H.E.) stain illustrates loss of relatively large cells and infiltration of small cells at the border of the infarct (D). Paired cellular profiles are seen peripheral to the infarct border or the infarct penumbra (E). At low magnification, a large number of transplanted bone marrow cells pre-labeled by PKH26 (red fluorescence) are present in the infarct penumbra 7 days post lesion (F). The labeled cells are small and may occur in cluster (G). No fluorescent cells exist in the cerebral cortex of mice received vehicle infusion (H). In situ cell division reflected by immunoreactivity of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) occurs predominantly at the infarct border (I) and penumbra (J), appearing as brown immunoreactive nuclei in hematoxylin counter-stained section.

PKH26 fluorescence appears weaker in these double-labeled cells relative to those seen at 7 days post cell transplantation. Scale bar (in B) = 200 μm for A, B and 50 μm for C-G.

2 Reviews For Anti-PCNA Antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10)
The PCNA antibody (Cat# MA1083) showed clear and distinct nuclear positivity in HepG2-derived subcutaneous tumors, indicating reliable detection.
Excellent
| SKU | MA1083 |
|---|---|
| Application | Immunohistochemistry |
| Sample | HepG2 subcutaneous xenograft in nude mice |
| Sample Processing Description | HepG2 cells were expanded and then implanted subcutaneously into nude mice. After 2 weeks, tumors formed, which were excised, fixed in formalin for 48 hours, and processed for paraffin embedding and sectioning. |
| Other Reagents | Goat serum, DAB chromogen solution |
| Primary Antibody | PCNA Antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) |
| Primary Incubation | 1:500, overnight at 4 ℃ |
| Secondary Antibody | Two-step IHC detection kit |
| Secondary Incubation | 30 min in 37℃ |
| Detection | Image system: Leica DM2500 |
| Results Summary | PCNA is a key marker for cell proliferation studies; however, besides being a proliferation marker, it is a core component of the DNA replication and repair complex. Its long half-life and involvement in DNA damage repair mean that PCNA positivity does not solely indicate cell proliferation but may also reflect cells responding to DNA damage. Combined with Ki67 staining, it can accurately indicate proliferative status. In our experiment, the staining was clear, with distinct nuclear positivity. |

Question
Would anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) MA1083 work on primate IHC with skeletal muscle?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-03-19
Answer
Our lab technicians have not tested anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) MA1083 on primate. You can run a BLAST between primate and the immunogen sequence of anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) MA1083 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated primate samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in primate skeletal muscle in IHC, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question
My question regarding product MA1083, anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10). I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
N. Banerjee
Verified customer
Asked: 2017-01-04
Answer
We do not advise storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free MA1083 anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10), we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Question
Will MA1083 anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
T. Singh
Verified customer
Asked: 2013-03-04
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, MA1083 anti-PCNA antibody (Monoclonal, PC 10) as been validated on WB. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.
