Specificity
This antibody reacts with an epitope (PEDGIHELFP) located in the ED-A sequence of cellular fibronectin (it therefore only detects the cFN and not extracellular FN (plasma FN)). (Liao et al.) The ED-A segment can be included or omitted from the molecule depending on the pattern of splicing of the mRNA precursors. In transformed or tumour derived cells the ED-A segment is about 10-times higher than in FN from normal fibroblasts, and it may therefore be a significant marker for malignancy (Borsi et al., and others). -

Epitope
Liao et al: Clone IST-9, binds to the Ile43 and His44 residues within ED-A in a conformationally dependent fashion, implicating the loop region encompassing both residues as critical for mediating ED-A function. The conformational domain C-C'-E of rat EIIIA encompassing the His44 residue is crucial for constituting the IST-9 epitope. -

General notes
The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years. Abcam is leading the way in addressing the problem with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation.
One factor contributing to the crisis is the use of antibodies that are not suitable. This can lead to misleading results and the use of incorrect data informing project assumptions and direction. To help address this challenge, we have introduced an application and species grid on our primary antibody datasheets to make it easy to simplify identification of the right antibody for your needs.

Extracellular matrix expression pattern.
Fibronectin was displayed in microtissues after ten days. (Bar in A549/SV80 monocultures: 50 μm, bar in all other microtissues: 100 μm); Secretion of fibronectin could be observed in microtissues containing fibroblasts, whereas in all tumour cell monocultures no fibronectin secretion could be detected.

ab6328 positively staining paraffin fixed canine myocardial infarct. tissue (1/200). The images demonstrate the time course of fibronectin deposition in reperfused canine myocaridal infarcts.
a: 24 hrs
b: 7 days
c: 28 days of reperfusion.
Secondary: Biotin conjugated goat anti mouse. Detection was achieved using DAB. -
Formalin fixed paraffin embedded rat kidney stained with ab6328 at a dilution of 1:100 after proteinase K digestion.

ab6328 staining Fibronectin in human small intestine tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections).
Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a Tris-EDTA buffer pH 9.0. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/50 in blocking buffer) for 30 minutes at 20°C. An undiluted HRP-conjugated Goat anti-mouse polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.
