General description

Amyloid monomeric proteins can sometimes oligomerize into destructive amyloid fibrils. Amyloidogenic conformations of non-disease related proteins can be created by partial protein misfolding or denaturation. In disease state oligomerization, extensive amyloid oligomerization creates plaques in neural tissue that correlates with Alzheimer’s symptomology.

Immunogen

Fibrils prepared from human islet amyloid polypeptide.

Application

Dot Blot Analysis: 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected Amyloid fibrils in fibrils and monomers but not in prefibril oligos. A 1:5,000 dilution, as cited in Glabe C., et al. (2007) Mol Neurodegener 2, 18 shows that the binding with monomers is likely non-specific, and is a possible result of high primary antibody concentration.
This Anti-Amyloid Fibrils LOC Antibody is validated for use in IP, IC, IH, ELISA, WB, DB for the detection of Amyloid Fibrils LOC.

Biochem/physiol Actions

This antibody recognizes generic epitopes common to many amyloid fibrils and fibrillar oligomers, but not monomers, prefibrillar oligomers or natively folded proteins.

Preparation Note

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance. After thawing, store at 4°C in 0.02% sodium azide.

Analysis Note

Evaluated by Dot Blot in monomers, prefibril oligos, and fibrils.

Dot Blot Analysis: 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected Amyloid fibrils in fibrils and monomers but not in prefibril oligos. A 1:5,000 dilution, as cited in Glabe C., et al. (2007) Mol Neurodegener 2, 18 shows that the binding with monomers is likely non-specific, and is a possible result of high primary antibody concentration.

The formation of protein aggregates is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases and systemic amyloidoses. These disorders are associated with the fibrillation of a variety of proteins/peptides, which ultimately leads to cell toxicity and tissue damage. Understanding how amyloid aggregation

Insight into how amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation occurs in vivo is vital for understanding the molecular pathways that underlie Alzheimer's disease and requires new techniques that provide detailed kinetic and mechanistic information. Using noninvasive fluorescence lifetime recordings, we imaged the formation

To better understand the etiology and pathomechanisms of Alzheimer's disease, several transgenic animal models that overexpress human tau or human amyloid-beta (Aβ) have been developed. In the present study, we generated a novel transgenic rat model by cross-breeding amyloid precursor
