Popis

General description

Galactocerebroside (GalC) is a major galactosphingolipid of myelin which plays a role in myelination. GalC is a very useful, specific marker for oligodendroglial lineage.

Immunogen

Synaptic plasma membranes from bovine hippocampus. Ranscht, B. et al. PNAS 79(8):2709-2713 (1982)

Application

Anti-Galactocerebroside Antibody, clone mGalC is an antibody against Galactocerebroside for use in ELISA, IC, & IHC.

Immunohistochemistry:
0.5-10 μg/mL of a previous lot was used on formalin fixed frozen sections of a prevous lot. Can not be used on paraffin embedded tissue sections since the antigen is denatured during embedding and paraffin removal.

Immunocytochemistry:
0.5-10 μg/mL of a previous lot was used on 4% paraformaldehyde, acetic acid or ethanol fixed cultured cells.

ELISA:
A previous lot was used on purified galactocerebrosides.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Galactocerebroside (GalC), sulfatide, psychosine and other galactolipids. Cross-reacts with the sulfatide ester of GalC, but to a 16-fold lesser extent. No cross-reactivity with sphingosine, ceramide, mixed ganglioside or glucocerebroside. Binds specifically with oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells.
