Background of Perilipin
Perilipin, also known as lipid droplet-associated protein or PLIN, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the PLIN gene. The protein encoded by this gene coats lipid storage droplets in adipocytes, thereby protecting them until they can be broken down by hormone-sensitive lipase. The encoded protein is the major cAMP-dependent protein kinase substrate in adipocytes and, when unphosphorylated, may play a role in the inhibition of lipolysis.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of Perilipin A using anti-Perilipin A antibody (A03918-1).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: rat liver tissue lysates,
Lane 3: mouse liver tissue lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Perilipin A antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A03918-1) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Perilipin A at approximately 56 kDa. The expected band size for Perilipin A is at 56 kDa.

4 Customer Q&As for Anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 Antibody Picoband®
Question
We purchased anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 antibody for Flow Cytometry on liver a few years ago. I am using rat, and We are going to use the antibody for ICC next. We want examining liver as well as adipocyte in our next experiment. Do you have any suggestion on which antibody would work the best for ICC?

Asked: 2019-10-30
Answer
I have checked the website and datasheets of our anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 antibody and it seems that A03918-1 has been tested on rat in both Flow Cytometry and ICC. Thus A03918-1 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for ICC in rat even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for ICC detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.

Question
We are currently using anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 antibody A03918-1 for human tissue, and we are happy with the Flow Cytometry results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it possible that the antibody can work on pig tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 antibody (A03918-1) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with pig tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in pig you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
We were satisfied with the WB result of your anti-Perilipin A/PLIN1 antibody. However we have observed positive staining in adipose tissue endoplasmic reticulum using this antibody. Is that expected? Could you tell me where is PLIN1 supposed to be expressed?

Asked: 2018-01-11
Answer
According to literature, adipose tissue does express PLIN1. Generally PLIN1 expresses in endoplasmic reticulum. Regarding which tissues have PLIN1 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Adipocyte, Pubmed ID: 9521880
Brain, Pubmed ID: 15489334
Liver, Pubmed ID: 24275569
