Background of PROC
Protein C (PROC), also called PC, is a zymogenic (inactive) protein, the activated form of which plays an important role in regulating blood clotting, inflammation, cell death and maintaining the permeability of blood vessel walls in humans and other animals. The PROC gene is mapped on 2q14.3. The PROC gene contains 8 exons and spans about 11 kb by Foster et al. The conversion of protein C to a protease with anticoagulant function by thrombin requires as a cofactor thrombomodulin, an endothelial cell membrane protein. Riewald et al. demonstrated that activated protein C uses the endothelial cell protein C receptor as a coreceptor for cleavage of protease-activated receptor-1 on endothelial cells. Faust et al. demonstrated that the endothelial pathways required for protein C activation are impaired in severe meningococcal sepsis. They stated that improvement in the outcome of children with meningococcal sepsis who were treated with unactivated protein C concentrates had been described in case reports and in 1 uncontrolled series.
Antibody Validation

Western blot analysis of Protein C using anti-Protein C antibody (PA1682).
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: JURKAT Cell Lysate
Lane 2: CEM Cell Lysate
Lane 3: SMMC Cell Lysate
Lane 4: HELA Cell Lysate.
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 rabbit anti-Protein C antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PA1682) 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-rabbit 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 # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Protein C at approximately 36KD. The expected band size for Protein C is at 52KD.

IHC analysis of Protein C using anti-Protein C antibody (PA1682).
Protein C was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human mammary cancer tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 mins. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-Protein C Antibody (PA1682) 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.

Flow Cytometry analysis of A549 cells using anti-PROC antibody (PA1682).
Overlay histogram showing A549 cells stained with PA1682 (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-PROC Antibody (PA1682,1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BA1127, 5-10μg/1x106 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1μg/1x106) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

3 Customer Q&As for Anti-Protein C/PROC Antibody Picoband®
Question
We are currently using anti-Protein C/PROC antibody PA1682 for human tissue, and we are satisfied with the IHC results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human. Is it possible that the antibody can work on goat tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-Protein C/PROC antibody (PA1682) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with goat 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 goat you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
Would PA1682 anti-Protein C/PROC antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?

Asked: 2018-08-27
Answer
As indicated on the product datasheet, PA1682 anti-Protein C/PROC antibody as been tested on IHC. 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.
