Background :
PH8 Antibody is a murine monoclonal antibody that binds a common epitope of Tryptophan hydroxylase (TRH), Tyrosine hydroxylase (TYH) and Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH).1 In the literature this monoclonal antibody is cited as PH8. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TYH) is the enzyme which converts tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-dopa), a precursor of the catecholamine neurotransmitters dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TRH) is the enzyme that converts 5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin. In fresh tissue the PH8 Antibody binds to TYH and TRH so is a marker for TYH-containing catecholaminergic neurons,2 and serotonergic neurons.3,4,5 Tryptophan hydroxylase (TRH) can be used as a marker for serotonin as it converts 5-hydroxy-tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin is rapidly metabolised and is unable to be detected by anti-serotonin antibodies in post mortem tissue. In human tissue that has been formalin-fixed, due to a change in the antigenic determinant of tyrosine hydroxylase (TYH), PH8 Antibody will bind only tryptophan hydroxylase (TRH).3,4,5 The PH8 Antibody can therefore be used to specifically identify serotonergic neurons in fixed human tissue. Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) can be detected in hepatic tissue sections using the PH8 Antibody.
