Vimentin Antibody (5G3F10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody raised against truncated and purified recombinant human vimentin, a key intermediate filament protein essential for cellular structure and function. Vimentin mouse monoclonal antibody (5G3F10) recognizes an epitope within the vimentin immunogen sequence and demonstrates broad species cross-reactivity, detecting vimentin in mouse, rat, and human samples through Western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded sections (IHC-P). Anti-vimentin monoclonal antibody (5G3F10) is available in non-conjugated form and multiple conjugated forms including agarose, horseradish peroxidase, phycoerythrin, fluorescein isothiocyanate, and various Alexa Fluor® conjugates, offering versatility for diverse experimental needs. Vimentin predominantly resides in the cytoplasm, where vimentin maintains cellular integrity, stabilizes organelles, and supports intracellular transport. Beyond structural roles, vimentin participates in numerous signaling pathways regulating cell migration, adhesion, and survival - processes particularly critical during wound healing and cancer metastasis. Vimentin forms dynamic interactions with other cytoskeletal components including actin, microtubules, and desmosomes, enabling cytoskeletal reorganization during cell division and migration. During pathological processes such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), vimentin expression increases significantly, making vimentin a crucial marker for monitoring cancer progression and metastasis. Through vimentin′s widespread expression in mesenchymal cells and frequent co-expression with cytokeratins in malignancies such as melanoma and breast cancer, Vimentin (5G3F10) antibody serves as an invaluable tool for distinguishing cell lineages and identifying metastatic tumor origins in both research and diagnostic applications.

I am using Vimentin (5G3F10): sc-66002 monoclonal antibody to stain paraffin embedded tissue. Do you recommend antigen retrieval when using this antibody?

Asked by: Randy McDonald
We recommend performing antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) and heat. The full protocol can be found here: https://www.scbt.com/scbt/resources/protocols/immunoperoxidase-staining

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile and High-Performing Vimentin AntibodyI used this Vimentin antibody in both breast cancer and choriocarcinoma cell models, and it performed exceptionally well across multiple applications. In Western blotting and immunoblotting, it produced clear, specific bands with minimal background (optimal starting dilution: 1:200; range: 1:100–1:1000). For immunoprecipitation, using 1–2 μg of antibody per 100–500 μg of total protein (1 ml lysate) yielded efficient pulldown with strong specificity. In immunofluorescence assays, the antibody produced crisp, distinct staining with a starting dilution of 1:50 (range: 1:50–1:500). It also worked very well in immunohistochemistry, including paraffin-embedded sections, delivering robust staining patterns at similar dilutions. Overall, this is a reliable, multi-functional antibody suitable for a wide range of experimental approaches.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Specificity was confirmed by WT and Vim-/- MEFsThe specificity of the antibody was confirmed by the WT and Vimentin knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), but the staining pattern, which is typical of monoclonal antibodies against the cytoskeleton, showed a strong dotted staining only where the epitope was exposed.
