During our study, we wanted to evaluate the proliferation state of different cell population during kidney development. We used Ki67, in combination with cell specific markers to quantify the cells in active proliferation in our mouse model of congenital malformation of the kidney.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Immunofluorescence

Sample

Paraffine embedded embryonic mouse kidneys

Primary Incubation

1:500 in blocking solution, 1 hour at RT

Blocking Agent

PBS + donkey normal serum 10%

Secondary Incubation

Flourescence coupled secondary antibody, 1:500 for 1 hour at RT

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

Fluorescence/confocal microscopy

Results Summary

This antibody raised in rat has very strong and specific signal in fixed-paraffin embedded renal samples from mouse embryos at different ages. It can be easily multiplexed with antibodies against cell specific population for an overall estimation of the proliferation state in the whole tissue.
