Recognizes a 60kDa protein, identified as the heat shock protein 60 (HSP60). A wide variety of environmental and pathophysiological stressful conditions trigger the synthesis of a family of proteins known as heat shock proteins (hsps), more appropriately called as stress response proteins (srps). HSP60 is a potential antigen in a number of autoimmune diseases. In human arthritis and in experimentally induced arthritis in animals, disease development coincides with the development of immune reactivity directed against not only bacterial HSP60, but also against its mammalian homolog.

Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1 ug/million cells in 0.1ml Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1 ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.5-1 ug/ml for 30 min at RT (1) Prediluted format : incubate for 30 min at RT (2) Optimal dilution of the HSP60 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
