Immunohistochemistry: Calcium-sensing R/CaSR Antibody (5C10, ADD) [NB120-19347] - Analysis of mouse stomach stained with Calcium Sensing Receptor Monoclonal Antibody. Fresh stomach tissue was fixed in 4% formalin for 1 hour and then incubated overnight at 4C in 25% sucrose before embedding in tissue freezing medium. Antigen retrieval was carried out on 8um cryo-sections by incubating in sodium citrate buffer for 45 minutes at 4C, immersing in sodium citrate buffer for 10 minutes at 100C before washing 3 times for 5 minutes each in 1X PBS. Sections were then blocked in blocking buffer (0.3% Triton X-100 in 1X PBS containing 10% normal goat serum) for 30 minutes at RT before staining with MA1-934 (diluted 1:100 in blocking buffer) overnight at 4C followed by a fluorophore-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody for 2 hours at RT. Sections were also stained with DAPI nuclear stain (blue). NB120-19347 positive cells (green) were found at the base of the antral glands in the mouse stomach.

Background

The calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) has been shown to play a major role in regulating parathyroid hormone secretion and subsequently influencing the calcium concentration of extracellular fluids. Based on sequence analysis of cDNA clones it appears that the CaSR is similar to the 7-transmembrane-domain G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily. Changes in extracellular calcium are thought to modulate a balance between proliferation and differentiation in a variety of cell types. In normal primary keratinocytes and breast epithelial cells, proliferation is inhibited and elevated extracellular calcium levels trigger differentiation. Malignant transformations of these cell types are accompanied by a loss of responsiveness to the anti-proliferative effects of elevated extracellular calcium. Several disorders of calcium homeostasis have been linked to mutations in the CaSR. These include familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH), neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT), and autosomal dominant hypocalemia (ADHypo).
