Scientific Data Images for Human beta-Defensin 4/2 Antibody

beta-Defensin 4/2 antibody in Human Lung by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

beta-Defensin 4/2 in Human Lung.

beta-Defensin 4/2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human lung using Human beta-Defensin 4/2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2758) 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-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific labeling was localized to the cytoplasm of alveolar cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Background: beta-Defensin 2

Human BD-2, also known as defensin beta 2 (DEFB-2), is a secreted, 41 amino acid residue anti-microbial protein belonging to the defensin family. Mature defensins are cationic proteins with three intramolecular disulfides and a characteristic triple-stranded beta-sheet. Human BD-2 expression is induced by inflammatory signals in multiple tissues, including airway epithelial cells and keratinocytes. At the amino acid sequence level, human BD-2 shares 98% and 51% homology with the proteins from rhesus monkey and rat, respectively.
