Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: 5-HT6 Antibody [NBP1-46557] -

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: 5-HT6 Antibody [NBP1-46557] - The 5-HT6 Receptor Is Highly Expressed in Human Tissue Grafts Originating from Both Fetal & hESC Sources(A–E) Immunofluorescence staining of 5-HT6 expression in a human dopaminergic fetal graft within the rat striatum (A & C) with the phenotypic staining for TH (A & B), & the identification of human NCAM (A & D), imaged using LSM. The 5-HT6 expression was confirmed to reside in DA neurons originating from the transplanted tissue (E).(F–J) Similarly, immunofluorescence staining of a paraffin-embedded section originating from the putamen of a PD patient that received a dopaminergic fetal graft, imaged using LSM, confirmed that the 5-HT6 receptor (F & H) is highly expressed in the TH-positive (F & G, with overlay in J) DA neurons originating from the fetal graft. Nuclear staining (DAPI) confirmed the 5-HT6 expression to be abundant in the neuronal soma (I).(K–O) To confirm if this receptor is also abundant in DA neurons differentiated from hESCs, a graft derived from the H9 hESC line, differentiated using the novel floor-plate-based protocol & transplanted to the parkinsonian striatum of a nude rat, was evaluated using LSM with immunofluorescence for the same genes: 5-HT6 (K & M), TH (K & L), & the human NCAM (K & N). This confirmed that this receptor is highly expressed in DA neurons also differentiated from this cell source, when transplanted to the striatum. Overlay of all three antigens confirmed the 5-HT6 receptor to reside in hESC-derived DA neurons (O). Scale bar, 100 μm (K) & 50 μm (N).

Background: 5-HT6

5-HT6, a Serotonin Receptor, appears to regulate cholinergic neurotransmission in the brain rather than the expected interaction as a modulator of dopaminergic transmission. This interaction predicts a possible role for 5-HT6 Receptor antagonists in the treatment of learning and memory disorders. The 5-HT6 Receptor is abundant in limbic areas, which participate in the control of mood and emotion. Some antidepressants and antipsychotics are potent 5-HT6 Receptor antagonists, making this gene valuable for the pharmaceutical industry. 5-HT6 may be involved in the pathogenesis of mood disorders, schizophrenia, in Alzheimer's disease. A splice variant that has a 289bp deletion in the transmembrane region IV and the third intracellular loop has been isolated. 5-HT6 Receptor has been reported primarily in striatum of the brain. Expression has also been seen in stomach, spinal cord, and the lymphoid tissues of rats, including peripheral blood lymphocytes, spleen, and thymus. ESTs have been isolated from brain libraries.
