Involucrin is expressed in a range of stratified squamous epithelia, including the cornea.
In normal epidermis, it is first expressed in the upper spinous layers, and in keratinocyte cultures it is expressed by all cells that have left the basal layer.
Involucrin expression is abnormal in squamous cell carcinomas and premalignant lesions and is reduced in severe dysplasias of the larynx and cervix.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA, Immunofluorescence, Immunoprecipitation, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions:Immunoprecipitation: 2ug/mg protein lysate (Denatured verified; Use Protein G).
Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml for 2 hours at RT.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/paraffin): 1:100-1:200 for 20 minutes at RT.
For staining formalin-fixed tissues, digest sections with trypsin at 1mg/ml PBS, for 10 minutes at 37°C or Protease XXV at 1mg/ml PBS, for 5 minutes at 37°C.
Note: Enzyme digestion is better than citrate buffer based epitope unmasking.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:LS174T cells and skin
