Immunohistochemical analysis of Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human CRC tumour tissue using ab51608 for HIF-1 alpha staining. Endogenous peroxidase of sections was inhibited by 7.5% H₂O₂ at room temperature

In central tumor areas of human CRCs β-catenin was typically localized at the cell membrane (A) whereas only a weak staining was observed for cytoplasmic GRP78 (B) and HIF-1 alpha staining was found to be negative (C). At the invasion front strong nuclear β-catenin was detectable indicating EMT (D, G). In corresponding regions strong cytoplasmic GRP78 expression was found (E, H). In some of the cases an intense nuclear HIF-1 alpha staining was observed (F, with hypoxia), but not in others (I, without hypoxia) (magnification 200×; scale bar: 100 µm).

ab51608 staining HIF-1-alpha in HeLa cell line treated with Cocl2 by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/500). An Alexa Fluor^® 488-conjugated Goat anti-rabbit IgG(1/200) was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI(right hand image).

Overlay histogram showing HeLa untreated (Blue line) and HeLa treated (Red line - Deferoxamine, 1mM, 24 hours) cells stained with ab51608. The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab51608, 1/11709 dilution) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor^® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H&L) (ab150081) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

HIF-1-alpha was immunoprecipitated using 0.5mg HeLa Nuclear DFO treated whole cell extract (ab180880), 5µg of Rabbit polyclonal to HIF1 alpha and 50µl of protein G magnetic beads (+). No antibody was added to the control (-).

The antibody was incubated under agitation with Protein G beads for 10min, HeLa DFO treated whole cell extract lysate diluted in RIPA buffer was added to each sample and incubated for a further 10min under agitation.

Proteins were eluted by addition of 40µl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70°C; 10µl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with unpurified ab51608.

Secondary: Mouse monoclonal [SB62a] Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG light chain (HRP) (ab99697).

Band: 110kDa; HIF1 alpha

HeLa cells were untreated or treated with 1mM Deferoxamine (DFO) for 24h and fixed with paraformaldehyde for imaging by fluorescent microscopy. Cells were blocked and stained with 1X blocking buffer (ab126587). Unpurified ab51608 was used at 1:500. DAPI was used to label the nucleus. HIF1 alpha staining is absent in untreated cells and induced by DFO treatment. HIF1 alpha localizes to the nucleus.

ab51608 staining HIF-1-alpha in Human ovarian carcinoma tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed and paraffin-embedded, antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in Tris/EDTA buffer pH9. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100). An undiluted HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG was used as the secondary antibody. Tissue counterstained with Hematoxylin.

Unpurified ab51608 staining HIF-1-alpha in HepG2 cells treated with baicalein (ab120723), by ICC/IF. Increase in HIF-1-alpha expression correlates with increased concentration of baicalein as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 6h in media containing different concentrations of ab120723 (baicalein) in DMSO, fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab51608 (5 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 goat anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody (ab96899) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.
