General description

Reacts with an epitope on the heavy chain of rabbit IgG, IgA and IgM, which is sensitive to reduction. No cross-reactivity with human IgG, IgA and IgM.

Specificity

Binds only rabbit Igs. Does not react with reduced rabbit Igs.

Application

Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)
The mouse monoclonal anti-Rabbit IgG (heavy chain-specific) peroxidase conjugated antibody can be used as a secondary antibody for western blot analysis of protein preps from E. coli cultures at a concentration of 1:10000 diluted in PBSt for 1 hour at room temperature.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IgG antibody subtype is the most abundant of serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids and provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defense of the neonate against infections. IgA antibody is secretory antibody and is present abundantly in mucous linings of gastrointestinal, respiratory and genitourinary tracts, tears and saliva. IgM antibodies are present as pentamers in the serum and are produced in response to antigens.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide

To study the importance of metallothionein-I and -II (MT-I+II) for brain inflammation and regeneration, the authors examined normal and MT-I+II knock-out (MT-KO) mice subjected to a cortical freeze injury. Normal mice showed profound neurodegeneration, inflammation, and gliosis around the injury

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is one of the mediators dramatically increased after traumatic brain injury that leads to the activation, proliferation, and hypertrophy of mononuclear, phagocytic cells and gliosis. Eventually, TNF-alpha can induce both apoptosis and necrosis via intracellular signaling.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which plays a role in apoptosis, is susceptible to oxidative stress. Because superoxide is produced in the brain after ischemia/reperfusion, oxidative injury to this organelle may be implicated in ischemic neuronal cell death. Activating transcription factor-4

6-aminonicotinamide (6-AN) is a niacin antagonist, which leads to degeneration of gray matter astrocytes mainly in the brainstem. We have examined the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in this degenerative process by using transgenic mice with astrocyte-targeted IL-6 expression (GFAP-IL6 mice).

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which plays important roles in apoptosis, is susceptible to oxidative stress. Because reactive oxygen species (ROS) are robustly produced in the ischemic brain, ER damage by ROS may be implicated in ischemic neuronal cell death. We
