- Description
- PA1-308 has been successfully used in Western blot, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~64 kDa protein representing endogenous levels of ER alpha from MCF-7 cell extracts. Immunohistochemical staining of ER alpha in rat prostate with PA1-308 results in primarily nuclear staining. The PA1-308 immunogen is a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues M(1) T M T L H T K A S G M A L L H Q I Q G N(21) C of human ER alpha. This peptide sequence is completely conserved between human, rat and mouse and is highly conserved between sheep, porcine, camel, bovine and chicken ER alpha. PA1-308 immunizing peptide (Cat. # PEP-036) is available for use in neutralization and control experiments. Recombinant ER alpha expressed in baculovirus system (Cat. # RP-310) can be purchased for control experiments in Western blot and gel shift assays.

- Western blot analysis of Estrogen Receptor alpha (ER alpha) was performed by loading the indicated amounts of recombinant full-length human ER alpha (Product # A15674) and ER beta (Product # A15664) proteins, and 10 µL of PageRuler Prestained Protein Ladder (Product # 26616) per well onto a Novex® 4-20% Tris-Glycine polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane (Product # 88518) using the G2 Blotter (Product # 62288), and blocked with 5% milk in TBST for at least 1 hour at room temperature. ER alpha was detected at ~66 kD (left panel) using an ER alpha polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-308) at a dilution of 1:1000 in blocking buffer overnight at 4C on a rocking platform, followed by an HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (Product # 31460) at a dilution of 1:40,000. Chemiluminescent detection was performed using SuperSignal West Pico (Product # 34080). The blot was then stripped with Restore Plus Western blot stripping buffer (Product # 46430) for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, re-blocked with 5% milk in TBST for at least 1 hour at room temperature, and re-probed with an ER beta polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-313, right panel) at a dilution of 1:2000 overnight at 4C, followed by an HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (Product # 31460) at a dilution of 1:40,000. Chemiluminescent detection was again performed using SuperSignal West Pico (Product # 34080).

- Immunofluorescent analysis of Estrogen Receptor alpha (ER alpha, green) in T47D and Hs 578T breast cancer cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 15 minutes at room temperature, and blocked with 0.3% BSA in PBS for at least 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were stained with an ER alpha polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-308) at a dilution of 1:4000 in blocking buffer overnight at 4C, and then incubated with a DyLight 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (Product # 35552) at a dilution of 1:500 for at least 1 hour at room temperature. Nuclei (blue) were stained with DAPI (Product # 62247). Images were taken on a Thermo Scientific ToxInsight Instrument at 20X magnification.

- Figure 2 Distribution of ERalpha and GFRs in bladder sensory neurons . This figure illustrates immunostaining for ERalpha using the antibody purchased from Affinity Bioreagents. (A, B) The proportion of sacral (A) and lumbar (B) bladder-projecting neurons containing ERalpha-, GFRalpha1, GFRalpha3-, CGRP-, TRPV1-, and NF200-immunoreactivity (IR). (C) The proportion of GFRalpha1-, GFRalpha3-, CGRP-, TRPV1-, and NF200-IR bladder sensory neurons containing ERalpha-IR. A higher proportion of GFRalpha3-IR neurons contained ERalpha-IR in lumbar vs. sacral DRGs ( * P = 0.01), whereas a higher proportion of NF200-IR neurons contained ERalpha-IR in sacral vs. lumbar DRGS ( * P = 0.03). (D) The proportion of ERalpha-IR bladder sensory neurons containing each marker. A higher proportion of ERalpha-IR neurons contained GFRalpha3-IR in lumbar vs. sacral DRGs ( *** P < 0.001). Data represents the mean +- s.e.m. ( n = 5), analyzed by a paired t -test on arcsine-transformed data. (E) Co-expression of ERalpha- and GFRalpha1-IR in a FluoroGold (FG)-labeled neuron. (F) Co-expression of ERalpha- and CGRP-IR in a FG-labeled neuron. Images are shown as monochrome image sets and the merged colorized image. The color of each label in the merged image is indicated by the color of the text in the relevant monochrome image. Scale bar in panel (E) represents 50 mum and applies to all images. Arrowheads indicate examples of retrogradely labeled neurons and their relative location in matching panels.

- FIGURE 3 Whole mount preparations of myenteric plexus expressing pan neuronal marker Hu in red and ERalpha/ERbeta in green. Significantly higher numbers of myenteric neurons expressed ERalpha in the nucleus during estrus while having some cytoplasmic expression compared to proestrus females and male myenteric neurons expressing less nuclear and cytoplasmic ERalpha. ERbeta expression was more cytoplasmic in all tissue samples and showed no significant difference in expression between groups. Scale bar = 20 mum ( n = 3, One-way ANOVA, *** p < 0.001). (A) Localization of ERalpha in the myenteric plexus preparations of estrus, proestrus, and male colon: ERalpha labeling was observed in more than 90% of myenteric neurons in both male and female mice. Images of representative myenteric ganglia, demonstrating neurons stained for Hu, ERalpha, and merged images of both Hu and ERalpha. During estrus stage, ERalpha labeling is predominantly nuclear while during proestrus and in male mice both nuclear and cytoplasmic labeling was observed (arrows indicate nuclear labeling of ERalpha). Scale bars = 20 mum. Graph shows quantified data ( n = 3) where there was significantly higher nuclear localization observed during estrus stage compared to both proestrus and male preparations (*** p < 0.001). (B) Localization of ERbeta in the myenteric plexus preparations of estrus, proestrus, and male colon: localization of the estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) is unchanged during estrus. ERbeta labeling w
