The normal tissue page shows antibody staining and, when available, knowledge-based annotated protein expression in 46 human tissues. The assay and annotation is described here.
This page starts with a summary. The summary data can be based on one or more antibodies (reported by the "Antibodies in assay"-field). If the data is based on one single antibody, the IH validation score for that antibody is reported in the "Reliability (Single)"-field (color-coding described here). If the data is based on more than one antibody, the reliability score for the data is reported as "Reliability (APE)" (color-coding described here).
The tissues and cell types can be ordered by organ, cell type or alphabetically.
For each tissue and cell type, the antibody staining is given with the yellow-scale color-coding (described by the scale in the box to the right). Each available antibody is listed in a separate column and the antibody identifier is available at the bottom of the tissue list. The images and annotations can be accessed by clicking on the tissue name.
When available, a knowledge-based annotated protein expression (APE) is given to the right of the antibody staining values. The level of expression is given by a blue-scale color-coding (described by the scale in the box to the right).
At the very bottom of this page, a summary of the staining from each antibody is given, together with a representative image and the immunohistochemistry validation score for the antibody.
Immunohistochemical staining of human cerebral cortex shows strong nuclear positivity in neuronal cells and glial cells.
Immunohistochemical staining of human cerebral cortex shows distinct neuropil positivity.
Immunohistochemical staining of human cerebral cortex shows strong nuclear positivity in neuronal and glial cells.
Summary
Strong cytoplasmic and nuclear immunoreactivity was observed in cells of the CNS and in peripheral nerves. Neuropil was distinctly stained. Remaining normal tissues were negative.
Normal tissues were generally negative. Cells in CNS showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic positivity. Neuropil were distinctly stained.
CNS displayed moderate to strong cytoplasmic and nuclear positivity in all cells except Purkinje cells of the cerebellum which were negative. Remaining normal tissues were negative.
Validation
Two (or more) antibodies yielding similar staining patterns which are consistent with available gene/protein characterization data
Two (or more) antibodies yielding similar staining patterns which are consistent with available gene/protein characterization data
Two (or more) antibodies yielding similar staining patterns which are consistent with available gene/protein characterization data
