The Mouse Monoclonal anti-Cardiac Troponin T2 antibody has been validated for ICS. It is suitable to detect Cardiac Troponin T2 in samples from Human, Mouse, Rat, Pig, Rabbit, Dog, Chicken and Guinea Pig. There are 7+ publications available.
The 13-11 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Troponin T type 2 (cardiac), encoded by the gene TNNT2. Troponin T is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which also encompasses troponin C and troponin I. This complex regulates muscle contraction in skeletal and cardiac muscle in response to alterations in calcium levels. Troponin T type 2 is solely found in the heart, and genetic alterations in the TNNT2 gene are associated to a series of heart disorders in humans, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular noncompaction. Cardiac Troponin T can be used as a marker for the identification of cardiomyocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells. Flow cytometric analysis of Cardiac Troponin T in human cardiomyocytes differentiated in vitro. Human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (Evans lab, UCSD) were disassociated and fixed in BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) and permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm/Wash Buffer I (Cat. No. 557885). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554680, dashed line) or PE Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T (solid line). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD LSR Fortessa™ flow cytometry system. Flow cytometric analysis of Cardiac Troponin T in mouse cardiomyocytes differentiated in vitro. The C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line (ATCC CRL-1772) was cultured for 5 days in low-serum conditions for induction of cell differentiation, fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer, and permeabilized with BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (dashed line) or PE Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T (solid line). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCanto™ II flow cytometry system. 564767 Rev. 1 Page 1 of 2
