What Techniques are Used to Study ABPs in Histology?
Several techniques are employed to study ABPs in histological samples:
Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Utilizes specific antibodies to detect ABPs within tissue sections, providing localization and expression patterns. Fluorescence Microscopy: Involves tagging ABPs with fluorescent markers to visualize their distribution and dynamics in live or fixed cells. Western Blotting: Used to quantify ABP expression levels in tissue extracts. Electron Microscopy: Offers high-resolution images of actin-ABP interactions at the ultrastructural level.
