CD54 Hamster anti-Mouse, Brilliant Violet 510, Clone: 3E2, BD

Description

• The 3E2 antibody reacts with CD54 (ICAM-1), a 95-kDa member of the Ig superfamily found on lymphocytes, vascular endothelium, high endothelial venules, epithelial cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells
• ICAM-1 is a ligand for LFA1 (CD11a/CD18) and Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18)
• Its expression is upregulated upon stimulation by inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and LPS
• Studies with mouse Icam1 -transfected antigen-presenting cells, with CD54-blocking antibodies, and in CD54-deficient mice indicate that CD54 participates in inflammatory reactions and antigen-specific immune responses
• In addition, there is evidence that CD54 is a receptor involved in MHC-non-restricted responses to weakly immunogenic tumor cells
• The 3E2 antibody has been reported to block in vitro and in vivo intracellular adhesion events involved in immune responses
• The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV510 which is part of the BD Horizon™ Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes
• With an Ex Max of 405-nm and Em Max at 510-nm, BD Horizon™ BV510 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the BD Horizon™ V500 (525/50-nm) filter set
• BD Horizon™ BV510 conjugates are useful for the detection of dim markers off the violet laser.
