IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human pancreas. Anti-CFTR antibody was used at 1/250 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
The CFTR protein, or cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein, is a crucial membrane protein found primarily in epithelial cells lining various organs such as the lungs, pancreas, and sweat glands. It functions as a chloride channel, regulating the movement of chloride ions across cell membranes to maintain proper fluid balance and mucus consistency. Mutations in the CFTR gene can lead to cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder characterized by thick, sticky mucus buildup in the lungs and digestive system, causing chronic infections and impaired organ function. The CFTR protein also plays a role in regulating sodium channels and has broader implications for epithelial cell function and ion transport.

Immunohistochemistry
Immunofluorescence
IF shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded mouse pancreas. Anti- CFTR antibody was used at 1/100 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 EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IF staining protocol.
