Specificity
Choline Acetyltransferase (ChAT). Will stain cholinergic neurons in rat, guinea-pig and rabbit central and peripheral nervous systems.
Immunogen
A 22 amino acid peptide from porcine ChAT, coupled to KLH. The sequence is H-GLFSSYRLPGHTQDTLVAQKSS-NH2.
Application
Immunohistochemistry: 1:1,000-1:2,000
Immunoblotting
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY PROTOCOL FOR AB1582
STAINING OF GUINEA PIG ILEUM
1) Pin the ileum out flat and tight.
2) Fix overnight at 4°C in modified Zamboni′s (2% paraformaldehyde with 15% saturated picric acid in phosphate buffered saline).
3) Clear in DMSO, 100%, 3 times for 10 minutes each, rinse in PBS.
4) Dissect off ALL circular muscle.
5) Preincubate with 10% normal donkey serum.
6) Incubate in anti-ChAT (AB1582) diluted 1:1,000-1,2000 with 10% normal donkey serum over night at 4°C on a shaker.
7) Incubate with Donkey anti-Sheep IgG-Cy3 labeled secondary antibody (Catalog Number AP184C) at a dilution of 1:200 for 2 hours.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is essential to remove ALL circular muscle.

The basal forebrain (BF) comprises morphologically and functionally heterogeneous cell populations, including cholinergic and non-cholinergic corticopetal neurons that are implicated in sleep-wake modulation, learning, memory and attention. Several studies suggest that glutamate may be among inputs affecting cholinergic corticopetal neurons

The Notch signaling pathway is a vitally important pathway in regulating brain development. To explore the involvement of the Notch pathway in neuronal cells of adult rat gut, we investigated the expression of Notch1 and Jagged2 by in situ hybridization

We used an antibody to choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) to label cholinergic cells in guinea pig brainstem. ChAT-immunoreactive (IR) cells comprise several prominent groups, including the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus, laterodorsal tegmental nucleus, and parabigeminal nucleus, as well as the cranial nerve
