General description

Proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) produces the small fragment amyloid β peptide. Cleavage of APP occurs mostly at residue 40 but to a lesser extent residue 42. Aggregates of amyloid β peptide are found deposited in the brains of Alzheimer′s patients.
Rabbit anti-amyloid peptide β, cleavage site 42 (Aβ42) antibody binds to human, mouse and rat Aβ42.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide of approximately 10 amino acid residues at the C-terminus of Aβ42.

Application

Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)
Rabbit anti-Aβ42 is suitable for use in immunoblot, immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation, RIA, ELISA and dot blot applications.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, containing approximately 25 μg of antibody.

Fibrillar amyloid deposits are defining pathological lesions in Alzheimer's disease brain and are thought to mediate neuronal death. Amyloid is composed primarily of a 39-42 amino acid protein fragment of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), called amyloid beta-protein (Abeta). Because

In an effort to optimize DNA immunization-elicited antibody production responses against A beta 1-42 (A beta 42) as a therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD), comparisons were made between three distinct plasmid systems using gene gun delivery. Plasmids encoding A beta

Abeta42 peptide aggregation and deposition is an important component of the neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Gene-gun mediated gene vaccination targeting Abeta42 is a potential method to prevent and treat AD. APPswe/PS1DeltaE9 transgenic (Tg) mice were immunized with an Abeta42

It has been hypothesized that alterations of the serotonergic system contribute to neuropsychiatric symptoms in Alzheimer disease (AD). Cellular expressions of the two serotonergic receptors 5-HT2A and 5-HT6 have therefore been determined by immunohistochemistry in the prefrontal cortex of patients
