- Description
- Description: The monoclonal antibody DE-U-10 recognizes desmin. Desmin is the protein subunit of class-III intermediate filaments. Desmin is found predominantly in skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle. Desmin plays a role in muscle cell development and differentiation, muscle cell architecture and structure, and mitochondrial function. Desmin forms scaffolds around the Z-disk of sarcomeres in muscle cells. Desmin knockout mice exhibit defects in skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle and have impaired mitochondrial function. Mutations in Desmin result in conditions such as desmin-related myopathy (DRM), cardiomyopathy dilated type 1I (CMD1I), and neurogenic scapuloperoneal syndrome Kaeser type (Kaeser syndrome). The DE-U-10 antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, feline, bovine, goat, hamster, sheep, porcine, rabbit, and chicken desmin. The DE-U-10 antibody will also label tumors derived from muscle tissue, such as leiomyomas and rhabdomyosarcomas. Applications Reported: This DE-U-10 antibody has been reported for use in western blotting, immunohistochemical staining of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections, microscopy, and immunocytochemistry. Applications Tested: This DE-U-10 antibody has been tested by immunohistochemistry of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded human tissue using either low or high pH antigen retrieval and can be used at less than or equal to 5 µg/mL. This DE-U-10 antibody has been tested by immunocytochemistry of methanol-fixed and permeabilized mouse cells and can be used at less than or equal to 5 µg/mL. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Purity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE. Aggregation: Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC. Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

- Western blot was performed using Anti-Desmin Monoclonal Antibody (DE-U-10), eBioscience™ (Product # 14-9747-80) and a 55 kDa band corresponding to Desmin was observed in Mouse Skeletal Muscle, Rat Skeletal Muscle, Mouse Heart, Rat Heart, Cardiomyocytes and RD cell line but not in Mouse Kidney, iPSC and MCF7. Two isoforms at ~40, ~50 kDa were also observed in Mouse Skeletal Muscle, Cardiomyocytes and RD cells. An uncharacterized band of ~25 kDa was also observed in Mouse Skeletal Muscle and Mouse Heart. Tissue extracts (30 µg lysate) of Mouse Skeletal Muscle (Lane 1), Rat Skeletal Muscle (Lane 2), Mouse Heart (Lane 3), Rat Heart (Lane 4), Mouse Kidney (Lane 7), whole cell extracts (30 µg lysate) of iPSC (Lane 5), Cardiomyocytes (Lane 6), RD (Lane 8) and MCF7 (Lane 9) were electrophoresed using Novex® NuPAGE® 4-12 % Bis-Tris gel (Product # NP0321BOX). Resolved proteins were then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Product # IB23001) by iBlot® 2 Dry Blotting System (Product # IB21001). The blot was probed with the primary antibody (2 ug/ml) and detected by chemiluminescence with Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), Superclonal™ Recombinant Secondary Antibody, HRP (Product # A28177, 1:4000 dilution) using the iBright FL 1000 (Product # A32752). Chemiluminescent detection was performed using Novex® ECL Chemiluminescent Substrate Reagent Kit (Product # WP20005).

- Immunohistochemical analysis of Desmin was performed using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded mouse colon and mouse kidney tissue sections. To expose the target protein, heat-induced epitope retrieval was performed on de-paraffinized sections using eBioscience™ IHC Antigen Retrieval Solution - High pH (10X) (Product # 00-4956-58) diluted to 1X solution in water in a decloaking chamber at 110 degree Celsius for 15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval, the sections were blocked with 2% normal goat serum in 1X PBS for 45 minutes at room temperature and then probed with Desmin Monoclonal Antibody (DE-U-10), eBioscience™ (Product # 14-9747-82) at 5 µg/mL in 0.1% normal goat serum overnight at 4 degree Celsius in a humidified chamber. Detection was performed using Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Highly Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor Plus 488 (Product # A32723) at a dilution of 1:2000 in 0.1% normal goat serum for 45 minutes at room temperature. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (Product # D1306) and the sections were mounted using ProLong™ Glass Antifade Mountant (Product # P36984). The images were captured on EVOS™ M7000 Imaging System (Product # AMF7000) at 20X magnification.
