Immunogen
Immunogen:
Nitrated KLH
Isotype control SM12B
Application Immunohistochemistry on frozen sections (1,3): Also cytospins: acetone fixation 10 min -20 °C; block endogenous peroxidase by 0.3 % H2O2 in PBS (or methanol for intracellular staining); blocking with 10% NGS or 5 % BSA for 30 min. The typical starting working dilution is 1:10. 
Immunohistochemistry on paraffin sections (4,5): 10% formalin fixation; 3% H2O2 to block endogenous peroxidases; Citrate buffer pH 6.0 for 1 min at 100 °C as antigen retrieval treatment. Positive control: Human lung tissue. The typical starting working dilution is 1:10.
Immunoassays (1).
Western blot (2-5): Reduced and no-reduced samples; block with 5% BSA or skimmed milk. Positive control: mouse kidney lysate, mouse optic nerve, retina , spinal cord and brain lysates, rat aorta lysate. The typical starting working dilution is 1:10.
Background Nitrotyrosine is formed in tissues in presence of the active metabolite NO and is a stable end product of nitrosylation of tyrosine. Inflammation is characterized by increased nitric oxide (NO) production. NO reacts rapidly with superoxide to form peroxynitrite. At physiological pH and in the presence of transition metals, peroxynitrite undergoes heterolytic cleavage to form hydroxyl anion and nitronium ion, the latter of which nitrates protein tyrosine residues. The presence of nitrotyrosine has been detected in various inflammatory processes including atherosclerotic plaques, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Thus, the presence of nitrotyrosine on proteins can be used as a marker for peroxynitrite formation in vivo and consequently as a marker of NO-mediated tissue damage.
Caution Keep sterile, do not add sodium azide or any nitric containing preservative since this will affect the antibody!
