Measurement of anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies by Western blotting. Detection of anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies by Western blotting. Recombinant full-length human rabphilin-3A expressed in HEK293FT cells (RPH3A) or negative control (-) were probed with serum from the present case (patient) or from a patient who was diagnosed with LINH by biopsy previously (positive control patient). Recombinant full-length human rabphilin-3A expressed in HEK293FT cells was also probed with an anti-V5 antibody as a positive control (Anti-V5 antibody) in the first lane from the left. Arrowheads indicate the presence of anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies. Dashed arrowheads indicate the absence of anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies. A protein band of 76Â kDa that appeared in RPH3A but not in that of negative control was considered to be positive for anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies.
