Quinolinic acid detection in human midbrain by immunohistofluorescence (IHF)Immunofluorescence staining highlights nuclear exclusion of Quinolinic acid in human midbrain. Paraffin-embedded brain tissue section was subjected to pH=9 antigen retrieval followed by overnight incubation with primary anti-Quinolinic acid antibody (dilution 1/250). After incubation with Alexa-555 conjugated secondary Ab, epifluorescence microscopy (100X) was used to visualize the staining.
Quinolinic acid detection in human midbrain by immunohistochemistry (IHC)Immunohistochemical analysis reveals cytoplasmic presence of Quinolinic acid in human midbrain tissue. Paraffin-embedded tissue section was subjected to pH=9 antigen retrieval followed by overnight incubation with primary anti-quinolinic acid antibody (dilution 1/500). After incubation with polymer-conjugated secondary Ab, DAB was used to visualize the staining.
Anti- Quinolinic acid antibody affinity & specificityCompetitive ELISA demonstrates that low amounts of Quinolinic acid conjugate are required to abolish antigen-antibody reaction (high affinity), while rising concentrations of Picolinic and Quinaldic acid conjugates do not affect the reaction (high specificity).
Quinolinic acidTryptophan catabolism along the kynurenine pathway produces neuroactive metabolites, with prototypical neurotoxin Quinolinic acid as a 'chef de file'. Known to be involved in a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's & Parkinson's diseases, ...) as well as psychiatric disorders (depression, schizophrenia, ...), Quinolinic acid induces neuronal damage. Activation of the NMDA-receptor, oxidative stress induction or mitochondrial dysfunction could explain quinolinic acid-induced neurotoxicity.
