Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: Caspase-9 knockout HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: HeLa cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 4: Jurkat cell lysate (20 µg)
Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab202068 observed at 46 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.
ab202068 was shown to recognize Caspase-9 when Caspase-9 knockout samples were used, along with additional cross-reactive bands. Wild-type and Caspase-9 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab202068 and ab8245 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted at 1/2000 and 1/10 000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed withGoat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/10,000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging. -
Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized HeLa (Human epithelial cells from cervix adenocarcinoma) cells labeling Caspase-9 with ab202068 at 1/500 dilution, followed by Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/500 dilution (green).
Confocal image showing cytoplasmic and nuclear staining on HeLa cell line. The expression increased after treatment with staurosporine (1uM) for 4 hours.
The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with ab7291 (anti-Tubulin mouse mAb) at 1/1000 dilution and ab150120 (AlexaFluor®594 Goat anti-Mouse secondary) at 1/500 dilution (red).
The negative controls are as follows:
-ve control 1: ab202067 at 1/500 dilution followed by ab150120 (AlexaFluor®594 Goat anti-Mouse secondary) at 1/500 dilution.
-ve control 2: ab7291 (anti-Tubulin mouse mAb) at 1/1000 dilution followed by ab150077 (Alexa Fluor®488 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L) at 1/500 dilution. -
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded Human cervix carcinoma tissue labeling Caspase-9 with ab202068 at 1/300 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) secondary antibody at 1/500 dilution.
Cytoplasmic and nuclear staining on Human cervix carcinoma tissue is observed.
Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) at 1/500 dilution.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
