HeLa cells were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde (PFA) for ten minutes and then were permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 for five minutes followed by blocking with 5% FBS for 30 minutes. The cells were then intracellularly stained with 2.5 µg/ml Alexa Fluor® 594 anti-Vimentin antibody (clone O91D3) (red) in a blocking buffer overnight at 4°C, followed by Alexa Fluor® 488 phalloidin (green) staining for 20 minutes at room temperature. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue).

    Human paraffin-embedded colon tissue slices were prepared with a standard protocol of deparaffination and rehydration. Antigen retrieval was done with Tris-Buffered Saline 20X (1.0M, pH7.4) at 95°C for 40 minutes. Tissue was washed with PBS/ 0.05% Tween20 twice for five minutes, permeabilized with 0.5% Trito-X 100 for ten minutes and blocked with 5% FBS and 0.2% Gelatin for 30 minutes. Then, the tissue was stained with 5 µg per ml of anti-Vimentin (clone O91D3) Alexa Fluor® 594 (red) and P

Description

Vimentin are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is a widely expressed and highly conserved 54 kD protein that is constitutively expressed in mesenchymal cells, endothelial cells lining blood vessels, renal tubular cells, macrophages, neutrophils, fibroblasts, and leukocytes1,2. Vimentin is used as a marker of mesenchymal cells to distinguish them from epithelial cells3. Increased vimentin expression is frequently used as an EMT marker in cancer4. Autoantibodies to vimentin are commonly found in patients with autoimmune diseases such as Lupus5 and rheumatoid arthritis6, and also found after transplantation7.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescence staining. For immunofluorescence microscopy, a concentration range of 0.1 - 10 μg per ml is recommended.  For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 5 - 10 µg per ml is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

* Alexa Fluor® 594 has an excitation maximum of 590 nm, and a maximum emission of 617 nm.

Application Notes

While this clone recognizes mouse Vimentin, we do not recommend its usage for western blot due to poor affinity of the antibody for the protein.
