Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded mouse liver tissue labeling RBP4 with ab188230 at 1/50 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use. Cytoplasmic staining on hepatocytes of mouse liver (PMID: 19624771; PMID: 21324757) 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) Ready to use.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformalehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized Hepa1-6 (mouse hepatoma epithelial cell line) cells labeling RBP4 with ab188230 at 1/500 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution (green). Confocal image showing cytoplasmic staining on Hepa1-6 cells.
The nuclear counterstain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab195889) at 1/200 dilution (red).
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution.

Flow cytometric analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 90% methanol-permeabilized Hepa1-6 (mouse hepatoma epithelial cell line) cell line labeling RBP4 with ab188230 at 1/500 dilution (red) compared with a Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control (ab172730) (black) and an unlabeled control (cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody) (blue). Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.

RBP4 was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg of Hepa1-6 (mouse hepatoma epithelial cell line) whole cell lysate with ab188230 at 1/30 dilution. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab188230 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366), was used for detection at 1/1000 dilution.
Lane 1: Hepa1-6 whole cell lysate 10 μg (Input).
Lane 2: ab188230 IP in Hepa1-6 whole cell lysate.
Lane 3: Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab188230 in Hepa1-6 whole cell lysate.
Exposure time: 2 seconds.
Blocking and dilution buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
