Vector Labs Ab01113-2.0 Anti-CD68 [FA-11], Mouse IgG2a, kappa (200 μg) Centrifuge Bundle Savings at Sycamore Life Sciences

Description

Product Class: Purified
Clone ID: FA-11
Synonyms: Macrosialin; FA/11; FA11 antigen
Amount: 200 μg
Application Codes Clone: FC; IHC; IP
Shipping Temperature: Wet Ice
Buffer Composition: PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Original Format: IgG2a
Storage Temperature: Store at 4⁰C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20⁰C.
Chimeric Use Statement: This chimeric mouse antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Rat IgG2a format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
Specificity Statement: This antibody is specific for murine CD68, known also as macrosialin (MS). CD68 is a 110 kDa, heavily O- and N- glycosylated type I integral membrane protein belonging to the sialomucin family and is closely related to the lysosomal/endosomal-associated membrane glycoproteins (LAMP). CD68 is predominantly expressed on the intracellular lysomsomes of monocytes and macrophages and to a lesser extent by dendritic cells and peripheral blood granulocytes. Elevated expression of CD68 has been demonstrated on CD34+ cells in various human malignancies, including several acute myeloid leukemia studies.
Application Notes: When it was first generated, this antibody was used in binding assays, immunoprecipitation (IP) and immunofluorescence (IF) to study the differential expression of murine macrophage surface glycoprotein antigens in intracellular membranes (Smith et al., 1987). Subsequently, this antibody has been utilised in numerous FACS, IP, IHC, ICC/IF, WB applications, for instance, to delineate the roles of mouse and human CD68 as macrophage receptors for oxidised low density lipoprotein (Ramprasad et al., 1996), to indicate that mice unresponsive to granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) are unexpectedly resistant to cutaneous Leishmania major infection (Scott et al., 2000), to characterise the macrophage subsets harbouring Leishmania donovani in spleens of infected BALB/c mice (Lang et al., 2000), and to examine the role of Foxp3(+) Tregs in Alzheimer's disease (Baruch et al., 2015).
