Recognizes Myelin Basic Protein in demyelinated nerve tissues. Immunohistochemistry analysis of lesioned rat spinal cord shows a high level of specificity for this antiserum.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 69-86 of the guinea pig protein. Immunogen corresponds to "degraded" Myelin Basic Protein: YGSLPQKSQRSQDENPVV
Application
Anti-Myelin Basic Protein Antibody is an antibody against Myelin Basic Protein for use in IH.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:2,000. Immunostains myelin basic protein of abnormal appearing oligodendrocytic processes and cell bodies in demyelinating areas. The antibody recognizes only areas of myelin degeneration when tested in injured spinal cord and lesioned sciatic nerve. It also stains discrete white matter in brain of multiple system atrophy

Promoting remyelination is crucial for patients with demyelinating diseases including multiple sclerosis. However, it is still a circuitous conundrum finding a practical remyelinating therapy. Electroacupuncture (EA), originating from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been widely used to treat CNS diseases

Sandhoff disease, one of the GM2 gangliosidoses, is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the absence of β-hexosaminidase A and B activity and the concomitant lysosomal accumulation of its substrate, GM2 ganglioside. It features catastrophic neurodegeneration and death in early
Adolescent binge drinking represents a major public health challenge and can lead to persistent neurological and mental conditions, but the underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain poorly understood. Using a mouse model of adolescent binge ethanol treatment (ABET), we found that this
