Antibody for human p75 LNTR identifies cholinergic basal forebrain of non-primate species.

Tremere LA, Pinaud R, Grosche J, Hartig W, Rasmusson DD (2000) Antibody for human p75 LNTR identifies cholinergic basal forebrain of non-primate species. NeuroReport 11(10):2177-2183. doi: 10.1097/00001756-200007140-00023 PMID: 10923666

Summary: 192-SAP (Cat. #IT-01) is a highly successful reagent for eliminating cholinergic neurons in rats. Because the targeting antibody only recognizes rat p75, it is unable to be used in other species. Tremere et al. have stained basal forebrain sections with ME20.4, a monoclonal antibody to human p75 (Cat. #AB-N07) and found excellent cross-reactivity in dog, raccoon, cat, pig and rabbit. The authors state that an ME20.4-saporin conjugate could be used to produce cholinergic basal forebrain lesions in several species.
