Abstract:Using immunohistochemical techniques, the distribution of the "classic" S100 calcium binding proteins, α (A1) and β (B), was determined in the mammalian vestibular end organs. An affinity-purified polyclonal antibody which recognized both the A1 and B subunits and two monoclonal antibodies specific for either the A1 or the B subunit were used in this study. S100A1 was localized specifically to the basal region of the sensory epithelium (saccular macula, cristae ampullaris and utricular macula) when a cross-lin… Show more
