Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-B7H4 antibody [EPR20236] (ab209242)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human breast cancer tissue labeling B7H4 with ab209242 at 1/1000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ready to use. Membranous and weak cytoplasmic staining on tumor cells of human breast cancer is observed [PMID:15756008]. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ready to use.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Immunofluorescent analysis of 100% methanol-fixed SK-BR-3 (Human mammary gland adenocarcinoma cell line) cells labeling B7H4 with ab209242 at 1/250 dilution, followed by Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution (green). Confocal image showing membranous staining on SK-BR-3 cell line.
The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with ab195889 (Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594)) at 1/200 dilution (red).
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) at 1/1000 dilution.

B7H4 is N-glycosylated protein. The level of B7H4 glycosylation varies between different cells and tissues. The bands at 65kDa and 45kDa represent glycosylated B7H4. The bands at 28kDa and 18kDa represent de-glycosylated B7H4. HT-29 and HeLa cell lines are negative controls. (PMID: 15878339).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-B7H4 antibody [EPR20236] (ab209242)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human breast tissue labeling B7H4 with ab209242 at 1/1000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ready to use. Predominantly apical, luminal membranous staining on human breast epithelium is observed [PMID: 15756008]. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
