ICC/IF image of ab55051 stained SHSY5Y cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab55051, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Immunohistochemistical detection of GABA B Receptor 1 antibody (ab55051) in PFA perfusion-fixed rat spinal cord section. ab55051 was used at 1/500, incubated for 18 hours @ 20°C in PBS-T 0.3%.  Secondary antibody: Alexa Fluor® 546 anti-IgG Mouse (1/1000).See Abreview

ab55051 staining rat brain (hippocampus) sections by IHC-Fr. The sections were  fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.3% PBS-Tween for 1h. Staining with ab5505 at a 1/1000 dilution in PBS-Triton (0.3%) with 0.02% azide was performed for 24h at 24°C. A donkey anti-rabbit Alexa568 polyclonal antibody at 1/1000 was used as the secondary antibody.  DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM. GABA-B R1 expressed in the hippocampal neurons.See Abreview

Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab55051 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 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 (ab55051, 0.5µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2a [ICIGG2A] (ab91361, 1µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

ab55051 staining GABA B receptor 1 in SK-N-SH cells treated with L-Glutamate (ab120049), by ICC/IF. Internalization of GABA B receptor 1 correlates with increased concentration of L-Glutamate, as described in literature.The cells were incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes in media containing different concentrations of ab120049 (L-Glutamate) 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 ab55051 (1 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 goat anti-mouse polyclonal antibody (ab96879) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.

ab55051 staining GABA B receptor 1 in SK-N-SH cells treated with NMDA (ab120052), by ICC/IF. Internalization of GABA B receptor 1 correlates with increased concentration of NMDA, as described in literature.The cells were incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes in media containing different concentrations of ab120052 (NMDA) 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 ab55051 (1 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 goat anti-mouse polyclonal antibody (ab96879) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.
