Gene Information

rat ... Th(25085)

Specificity

Tyrosine Hydroxylase. Immunohistochemical distribution throughout the brain shows that staining is restricted to those neurons known to contain the enzyme. The antibody has proven useful in staining catecholaminergic neurons. AB5986 stains these neurons intensely, including dendritic processes and fine nerve terminals.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 32-47 of rat Tyrosine Hydroxylase.

Application

Immunohistochemistry: 1:2,000-1:4,000.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

This Anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase Antibody is validated for use in IH for the detection of Tyrosine Hydroxylase.

Physical form

Rabbit serum. Lyophilized. Reconstitute with 50 μL of sterile distilled water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. Contains no preservative.

Storage and Stability

Maintain lyophilized material frozen at -20°C to -70°C for up to 12 months. After reconstitution maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Glycerol (1:1, ACS or better grade) can be added for additional stability.

Analysis Note

Control
POSITIVE CONTROL: brain (sympathetic nerve terminals) and adrenal glands.

GABAergic interneurons are essential for neural circuit function, and their loss or dysfunction is implicated in human neuropsychiatric disease. In vitro methods for interneuron generation hold promise for studying human cellular and functional properties and, ultimately, for therapeutic cell replacement. Here
