IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human pituitary. Anti-ACTH antibody was used at 1/2000 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Background
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a tropic hormone produced by the anterior pituitary. The hypothalamic-pituitary axis controls it. ACTH regulates cortisol and androgen production. Diseases associated with ACTH include Addison disease, Cushing syndrome, and Cushing disease.

Immunofluorescence

IF shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human pituitary. Anti-ACTH antibody was used at 1/2000 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. Goat polyclonal Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) was used as secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. Counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IF staining protocol.

Negative control: IF shows negative staining in paraffin-embedded human cardiac muscle. Anti-ACTH antibody was used at 1/2000 dilution and incubated overnight at 4°C. Goat polyclonal Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) was used as secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. Counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IF staining protocol.
