Doublecortin (DCX) serves as a critical microtubule-associated protein essential for neuronal migration during brain development. Expressed predominantly in migrating neuroblasts and immature neurons, DCX has become an indispensable marker for studying adult neurogenesis, cortical development disorders, and neural stem cell biology. Mutations in the DCX gene are directly linked to X-linked lissencephaly and subcortical band heterotopia, making this protein a focal point for researchers investigating neurodevelopmental pathologies and potential therapeutic interventions.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody (clone 5E12) offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding neuroscience research requires. Generated against recombinant human DCX protein and produced using recombinant technology, this antibody provides sequence-defined specificity with minimal lot-to-lot variation, ensuring your longitudinal studies and multi-site collaborations maintain experimental continuity. The human IgG1 isotype format and affinity-chromatography purification deliver a reagent optimized for reliable target detection.
Validation through immunohistochemistry demonstrates robust performance across diverse human tissue contexts. Testing in paraffin-embedded human brain tissue confirms detection in the native neurological environment where DCX functions physiologically. Additional validation in human glioma tissue extends utility into neuro-oncology applications, where DCX expression patterns may inform tumor characterization studies. Interestingly, validation in human testis tissue reflects the documented expression of DCX in this organ, providing researchers studying extra-neural DCX biology with a verified tool. Recommended working dilutions of 1:50 to 1:200 for immunohistochemistry offer flexibility for optimization across different experimental conditions.
Whether investigating neurogenesis, characterizing neural progenitor populations, or exploring DCX's role in pathological contexts, this antibody supports research spanning developmental neurobiology, neuro-oncology, and regenerative medicine applications.
