Specificity
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

In multiple sclerosis, inflammation can successfully be prevented, while promoting repair is still a major challenge. Microglial cells, the resident phagocytes of the central nervous system (CNS), are hematopoietic-derived myeloid cells and express the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells
