IHC with Anti-Ki67 antibody (M00254-9) in HepG2 xenograft tumors showed clear nuclear staining in proliferating cells, accurately reflecting the proliferation index with low background.

Excellent, submitted by on
SKU M00254-9
Application Immunohistochemistry
Sample HepG2 subcutaneous xenograft in nude mice
Sample Processing Description HepG2 cells were expanded in culture and subcutaneously implanted into nude mice. After 2 weeks of tumor formation, tumor tissues were harvested, fixed in 4% formaldehyde for 48 hours, and then processed for paraffin embedding and sectioning.
Other Reagents Goat serum, DAB chromogen solution
Primary Antibody Ki67 Antibody Picoband® (monoclonal, 5C7)
Primary Incubation 1:200, overnight at 4 ℃
Secondary Antibody Two-step IHC detection kit
Secondary Incubation 30 min in 37℃
Detection Image system: Leica DM2500
Results Summary Ki67 is a key marker of cell proliferation with high specificity, as it is expressed only in actively dividing cells and has a very short half-life, allowing accurate assessment of the proliferation index at the time of sampling. It is widely used in tumor prognosis evaluation (e.g., high Ki67 index in breast cancer is often associated with poor prognosis) and assessment of tissue regenerative activity. In this experiment, clear and distinct nuclear positivity was observed with well-defined staining.

The PCNA antibody (Cat# MA1083) showed clear and distinct nuclear positivity in HepG2-derived subcutaneous tumors, indicating reliable detection.

MA1083 Immunohistochemistry
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.

WB results showed that VEGFC (M00623) was upregulated by LPS and reduced after dexamethasone or homemade drug treatment, with clear and specific bands, indicating an anti-inflammatory effect.

SKU M00623
Application Western Blot
Sample Human retinal microvascular endothelial cells
Sample Processing Description Human retinal microvascular endothelial cells treated with LPS and then with dexamethasone or homemade drug.
Other ReagentsRIPA lysis buffer, Protease inhibitor, Running buffer, Transfer buffer, Blocking buffer
Primary Antibody VEGFC Antibody
Primary Incubation 1:2000, overnight at 4 ℃
Secondary Antibody HRP Conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) (BA1054)
Secondary Incubation 1:10000, 1 h in RT
Detection Substrate: ECL substrate, Image system:ChemiDoc MP
Results Summary VEGFC is an important signaling protein in vivo that primarily acts on lymphatic and blood vascular endothelial cells, promoting lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis. WB results showed that VEGFC expression was increased in LPS-stimulated human retinal microvascular endothelial cells and decreased after treatment with dexamethasone or a homemade drug, indicating the anti-inflammatory effect of the homemade drug.

Immunofluorescence using Anti-GFAP antibody (MA1045) clearly labeled protoplasmic astrocytes in the spinal cord gray matter, showing dense, bushy processes surrounding neurons, with excellent specificity and staining.

SKU MA1045
Application Immunofluorescence
Sample rat spinal tissue
Sample Processing Description Paraffin-embedded transverse sections of rat spinal cord were prepared after formalin fixation.
Other ReagentsTris-EDTA Antigen Retrieval Buffer (50×, pH 9.0), DAPI
Primary Antibody GFAP Antibody (Monoclonal, G-A-5)
Primary Incubation 1:200, overnight at 4 ℃
Secondary Antibody Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Secondary Antibody, Fluoro488 Conjugated
Secondary Incubation 45 minutes in 37℃
Detection Imaging system:Leica DM2500
Results Summary GFAP is a marker of astrocytes. In this experiment, immunostaining for GFAP was used to label astrocytes in the gray matter of the spinal cord to observe their distribution, density, and morphology. The results showed that the labeled protoplasmic astrocytes in the gray matter had short, thick, and highly branched processes with rough surfaces, forming a dense “bushy” network tightly surrounding neuronal cell bodies and synapses, consistent with theoretical expectations and demonstrating excellent staining.

In this study, these two antibodies were primarily used for Western blot experiments. In the Western blot results, the CCT1 antibody showed a strong specific band and maintained a robust signal even after multiple reuses.
