Anti-Internexin alpha (Alpha-Inx) Antibody
Our Anti-Internexin alpha (Alpha-Inx) rabbit polyclonal primary antibody detects cat, human, mouse, other mammals, and rat Internexin alpha (Alpha-Inx), and is whole serum. It is validated for use in ICC, IHC-Frozen, WB.
Mixed neuron-glial cultures stained with Rabbit polyclonal antibody to Internexin alpha R-1379-50 (red) and Chicken polyclonal antibody to peripherin C-1399-50 (green). The alpha internexin antibody stains numerous axonal and dendritic profiles in these cultures, while Peripherin antibody binds to only a subset of neurons.

Product Details
Internexin alpha (Alpha-Inx)
Neurofilaments can be defined as the intermediate or 10 nm diameter filaments found in neuronal cells. They are composed a mixture of subunits which often includes the neurofilament triplet proteins, NF-L, NF-M and NF-H. Neurofilaments may also include peripherin, alpha-internexin, nestin and in some cases vimentin. Alpha-internexin is a ~66 kDa Class IV intermediate filament subunit expressed in large amounts early in neuronal development, but is downregulated in many neurons as development procedes. Many classes of mature neurons contain alpha-internexin in addition to NF-L, NF-M and NF-H. In some mature neurons alpha-internexin is the only neurofilament subunit expressed. Antibodies to alpha-internexin are therefore unique probes to study and classify neuronal types and follow their processes in sections and in tissue culture. In addition the very early developmental expression of alpha-internexin means its presence is an early and convenient diagnostic feature of neuronal progenitors cells and other cell committed to the neuronal lineage.
