AKR1D1 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Flow Cytometry analysis of HepG2 cells using anti-AKR1D1 antibody. Overlay histogram showing HepG2 cells (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with mouse anti-AKR1D1 Antibody (1 µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (5-10 µg/1x106 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was mouse IgG (1 µg/1x106) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

IHC analysis of AKR1D1 using anti-AKR1D1 antibody. AKR1D1 was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human liver cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1 µg/ml mouse anti-AKR1D1 Antibody overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-mouse IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) with DAB as the chromogen.

Western blot analysis of AKR1D1 using anti-AKR1D1 antibody. Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50 ug of sample under reducing conditions. Lane 1: human HepG2 whole cell lysates; Lane 2: human HL-60 whole cell lysates; Lane 3: human THP-1 whole cell lysates; Lane 4: rat liver tissue lysates; Lane 5: rat RH35 whole cell lysates; Lane 6: mouse liver tissue lysates; Lane 7: mouse HEPA1-6 whole cell lysates; After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with mouse anti-AKR1D1 antigen affinity purified monoclonal antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1% Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for AKR1D1 at approximately 37 KD. The expected band size for AKR1D1 is at 37 KD.
