Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Parvalbumin Antibody [NB120-11427] - Analysis of Parvalbumin using anti-Parvalbumin polyclonal antibody shows staining in U251 Cells. Parvalbumin staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with or an antibody recognizing Parvalbumin at a dilution of 1:200 overnight at 4C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated.

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: Parvalbumin Antibody [NB120-11427] - Stargazin expression is restricted to PV+ interneurons in WT mouse somatosensory cortex (upper row). Somatodendritic stargazin immunoreactivity is lost in PV+ interneurons in stargazer mouse (lower row).

Background: Parvalbumin

Parvalbumin (PV) is a calcium binding protein expressed in specific muscle fibers and fast-firing neurons. PV consists of a single, unbranched chain of linked amino acids and belongs to a larger group of EF hand proteins. Studies have demonstrated that parvalbumin acts in the decay of calcium in the contraction/ relaxation cycle of fast twitch muscles. This data has shown a positive correlation between the rate of relaxation and the concentration of parvalbumin. Parvalbumin is also expressed in a specific population of GABAergic interneurones which are thought to play a role in maintaining the balance between excitation and inhibition in the cortex as well as the hippocampus. In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patents, parvalbumin immunoreactivity is specifically absent from neuron populations lost early in ALS.
