Iba1 is a calcium-binding protein with a molecular weight of 17,000 specifically expressed in macrophage/microglia. Recently, microglia has attracted attentions because neurological damage effect by production of NO, TNF-α, and IL-1β have been proved in addition to its role in neurotrophic effects/neuroprotective actions. These products are antibodies that specifically recognize Iba1, and are available for a microglial marker.
In particular, "Anti Iba1, Rabbit (for immunocytochemistry) Code No. 019-19741" is used by many worldwide researchers as a standard for microglial marker antibody. There are also many references in major journals such as Nature, Cell etc.
