Primary antibody notes
Liver X Receptors (LXRs) are oxysterol activated nuclear receptors which are involved in the regulation of genesis and metabolism of cholesterols and bile acids. LXRs form heterodimeric complexes with the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) once activated by their respective oxysterol ligands. Two known isoforms, alpha and beta, are differentially expressed; the alpha isoform predominantly expressed in liver, whereas beta isoform expression has been shown to be ubiquitous. -

Immunocytochemistry - Anti-LXR alpha antibody (ab3585)
Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of MCF-7 cells labeling LXR alpha (green) with ab3585 at 1/300. F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI or Hoechst (blue). Cells were fixed with formalin, permeablized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA in PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were incubated with the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. A DyLight-conjugated secondary antibody was used. 60X magnification. Left - negative control.

The cells were formaldehyde fixed, permeabilized and blocked before being stained with the antibody for 1 hour at 22°C. A FITC labelled goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.
