The LRP1 Antibody, HRP conjugated (ab195569) is a rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody developed by Abcam for detecting Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 1 (LRP1). LRP1 is a multifunctional receptor critical in lipid metabolism, endocytosis, and Alzheimer’s disease research. This antibody is conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP), enabling enzymatic detection in immunohistochemistry (IHC) and other assays. Below is a detailed analysis of its specifications, validation, and applications.
The unconjugated counterpart (ab92544) was validated in WB using wild-type and LRP1 knockout HAP1 cells .
Predicted band size: 504 kDa (LRP1 full-length).
Key result: No signal in knockout cells, confirming specificity.
Tested on human testis tissue using a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA instrument .
Antigen retrieval: Heat-mediated with CC1 buffer (pH8.5, 32 mins).
Staining pattern: Membranous and cytoplasmic localization in testicular cells.
The unconjugated antibody (ab92544) labeled Jurkat cells at 1/100 dilution, with a FITC-conjugated secondary antibody .
Control groups: Isotype and unlabelled controls confirmed specificity.
LRP1’s role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves both Aβ clearance and APP processing . The HRP-conjugated antibody is ideal for:
Imaging Aβ plaques: Detecting LRP1 expression in brain tissue to study Aβ uptake .
Pathway analysis: Investigating LRP1-mediated APP endocytosis and amyloidogenic processing .
