Description
OverviewRecognizes ~50 kDa glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in human and bovine cytoskeletal preparations.
Catalogue NumberNE1015
Brand Family Calbiochem®
SynonymsAnti-GFAP Cocktail
Application Data
Detection of rat glial fibrillary acidic protein by staining frozen sections. Sample: Rat brain. Primary antibody: Anti-GFAP Cocktail Mouse mAb (SMI-22) (Cat. No. NE1015) (1:1000). Detection: fluorescence (red) with Hoechst 33342 counterstain.

Primary mixed glial cultures were stained with anti-mouse GFAP (EMD Millipore, Cat. No. MAB360) and a DyLight™488 conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary Antibody. The nucleus was counterstained with DAPI. The image was captured using Olympus BX51 with an exposure time of 982 millisec for green channel and 126 millisec for DAPI channel. Magnification is 10X without any correction on Gain/Offset/Bad pixel. Courtesy of Jose Shinsmon, Immunology, Dept of Pathology, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, UPM,Serdang 43400.

Application CommentsThis cocktail is derived from the Bigner-Eng clones MAb1B4, MAb2E1, and MAb4A11 and provides a means for more comprehensive detection of astrocytomas than each clone alone. Each component is specific for GFAP and stains astrocytes and astrocytic processes as well as Bergman glia. Recognizes both anaplastic and reactive astrocytes by immunocytochemical staining. Does not recognize metastatic tumors and brain tumors of non-astrocytic origin, including medulloblastomas, meningiomas, choroid plexus papillomas, and schwannomas. For staining paraffin sections it is recommended that de-paraffinized sections be treated with 0.1% trypsin in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.6 for 20-30 min at 37°C or boiled in Tris-buffered saline, pH 9.0 for 15 min to expose the epitope. For immunocytochemistry or staining frozen sections, post-fixation in cold methanol or methanol/hydrogen peroxide for 10 min is required for access to the astrocytes in the sample. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

DescriptionMouse monoclonal antibody cocktail that contains a mixture of 3 antibodies supplied as undiluted ascites. Recognizes the ~50 kDa glial fibrillary acidic protein.
BackgroundGlial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is an intermediate filament protein found only in glial cells or cells of glial origin. It can be detected in astrocytes and certain other astroglia in the CNS, in satellite cells in peripheral ganglia, and in non-myelinating Schwann cells in peripheral nerves. GFAP is upregulated and expressed at high levels in astrocytes in many damage and disease states. It is also often highly expressed in neural stem cells and many types of brain tumors.
