Western blot shows lysates of human placenta tissue and human adipose tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human Carboxypeptidase M Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7457) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Carboxypeptidase M at approximately 58-65 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Carboxypeptidase M was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human placenta using Sheep Anti-Human Carboxypeptidase M Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7457) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to the plasma membrane of decidual cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.
