Biosensis’ rabbit and chicken antibodies to human calretinin and parvalbumin

Rabbit and chicken antibodies to parvalbumin and human calretinin.

Interneurons represent a mixture of diverse neuronal sub-populations, and thus, antibodies to specific cell markers are important to differentiate interneuron cell types. Biosensis’ new mouse, rabbit and chicken antibodies to human calretinin (M-1799-100, R-1800-50, C-1801-50) and parvalbumin (M-1813-100, C-1814-50) are high-quality research reagents for immunohistochemical and western blotting studies to identify the physiological role of neuronal sub-populations.

Left: Rat cerebellum section stained with mouse anti-parvalbumin (M-1813-100, green) and chicken anti-calbindin (C-1798-50, red) by Immunohistochemistry. Blue: DAPI nuclear stain. Most Purkinje cells strongly express both parvalbumin and calbindin and thus appear yellow. Basket, stellate and Golgi cells express parvalbumin alone, and thus appear green.

Right: Detection of calretinin (29 kDa) by Western Blotting with rabbit anti-calretinin (R-1800-50) in (2) rat brain, (3) rat spinal cord, (4) mouse brain, (5) mouse spinal cord, and (6) cow spinal cord homogenates.
