Scientific Data Images for Human GAD2/GAD65 Antibody

GAD2/GAD65 antibody in Human Dorsal Root Ganglia by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

GAD2/GAD65 in Human Dorsal Root Ganglia.

GAD2/GAD65 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human dorsal root ganglia using Goat Anti-Human GAD2/GAD65 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2247) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to dorsal roots.

Background: GAD2/GAD65

Glutamic acid decarboxylases (GAD), which catalyze the formation of gamma-aminobutyric acid from L-glutamic acid, are detectable in different isoforms encoded by distinct genes. GAD2, also known as GAD65, is expressed in the brain and pancreatic islets. GAD2 has been implicated as an autoantigen in the autoimmune disease Stiff Man Syndrome and in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
