Neurofilament H antibody | RT97
Mouse anti Rat Neurofilament 200kDa antibody, clone RT97 (MCA1321) used to label neurons in rat brain sections by immunofluorescence.
Image caption:
CRMP2 expression and phosphorylation is detected in L6 DRG neuron subpopulations. Micrographs of a 10 μm section of adult L6 DRG from animals having received a spared nerve injury and immunostained with antibodies against NF200 and NaV1.8 as indicated. Micrographs are representative of N = 4 animals with 8 independent slices per animal per staining combination; ipsi = ipsilateral (injured side) and contra = contralateral (non-injured side).

Mouse anti Rat Neurofilament 200kDa antibody, clone RT97 recognizes the 200kDa neurofilament protein in a range of species. Mouse anti Rat Neurofilament 200kDa antibody, clone RT97 stains various tumors including phaeochromocytoma, paraganglioma and ganglioneuroblastoma.
Mouse anti Rat Neurofilament 200kDa antibody, clone RT97 also recognizes a phosphorylation dependent epitope on fetal tau, Alzheimer's paired helical filament-tau and on microtubule associated protein 1B (MAP1B) by western blotting, however similar reactivity was not apparent in immunohistochemical studies (Johnstone et al. 1997).
