IHC staining of Alexa Fluor® 647 anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody (clone 2/40/15) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human Substantia Nigra tissue. Following antigen retrieval using Sodium Citrate H.I.E.R., the tissue was incubated with 0.2 µg/ml of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst, and the slide was mounted with ProLong™ Gold Antifade Mountant. The image was captured with a 40X objective. Scale Bar: 50 µm

IHC staining of Alexa Fluor® 647 anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody (clone 2/40/15) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded mouse brain tissue. Following antigen retrieval using Sodium Citrate H.I.E.R., the tissue was incubated with 5 µg/ml of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst, and the slide was mounted with ProLong™ Gold Antifade Mountant. The image was captured with a 40X objective. Scale Bar: 50 µm
Tyrosine hydroxylase, also known as tyrosine 3-monooxygenase, is the enzyme that converts amino acid L-Tyrosine to L-3, 4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA). L-DOPA is a precursor to dopamine, which is then converted to norepinephrine and epinephrine (adrenaline). Dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine are all important neurotransmitters. Alterations in the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase may be involved in a number of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's and schizophrenia.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded immunohistochemical staining. For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 0.2 - 5 µg/ml is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
