Anti-Oligodendrocytes Antibody, clone CE-1

32160702

NA.41

In neonatal rat glia MAB328 stains oligodendrocytes and does not react with type 1 astrocytes, type 2 astrocytes or fibroblasts. Does not stain cultures of rat Schwann cells. In tissue sections MAB328 labels oligodendrocytes and CNS myelin with no labeling of peripheral myelin. MAB328 detects MOSP which is expressed at day 4-5 of neonatal rat, which is about 1-2 after the appearance of GC or sulfatide. The initial expression of MOSP occurs at the stage in development when oligodendrocytes are elaborating processes and just beginning to form membrane sheets (Mu QQ & C Dyer, 1994).

IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY PROTOCOL FOR MAB328

This antibody has been used successfully on 30 mm, free floating, 4% paraformaldehyde fixed rat brain tissue. All steps are performed under constant agitation. Suggested protocol follows.

1) 3 x 10 minute washes in TBS (with or without 0.25% Triton).

2) Incubate for 30 minutes in TBS with 3% serum (same as host from secondary antibody).

3) Incubate primary antibody diluted appropriately in TBS with 1% serum (same as host from secondary antibody) (with or without 0.25% Triton) for 2 hours at room temperature followed by 16 hours at 4°C.

4) 3 x 10 minute washes in TBS.

5) Incubate with secondary antibody diluted appropriately in TBS with 1% serum (same as host from secondary antibody).

6) 3 x 10 minute washes in TBS.

7) ABC Elite (1:200 Vector Labs) in TBS.

8) 2 x 10 minute washes in TBS.

9) 1 x 10 minute wash in phosphate buffer (no saline).

10) DAB reaction with 0.06% NiCl added for intensification.

11) 2 x 10 minute washes in PBS.

12) 1 x 10 minute wash in phosphate buffer (no saline).
