CD266 Mouse anti-Human, BUV395, Clone: ITEM-1, BD Optibuild™

Description

• The ITEM-1 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD266, which is also known as TWEAK Receptor (TWEAK-R/TWEAKR), or Fibroblast growth factor inducible 14 (FGF-inducible 14, FN14)
• CD266 is a ñ14 kDa type I transmembrane protein that is the 12A family member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF12A)
• It is expressed at low levels in a variety of tissues including, heart, placenta, lung, muscle, and pancreas
• CD266 is relatively highly expressed on HUVEC cells and certain tumor cell lines
• TWEAK-induced CD266-mediated signaling can play roles in inflammation, the induction of apoptosis in certain cell types, the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells, and can promote angiogenesis within healthy and diseased tissues, eg, tumors
• The ITEM-1 antibody can reportedly induce the proliferation of HUVEC cells and the death of certain TWEAK-sensitive tumor target cell lines
• CD266 binds TWEAK (CD255) and can signal intracellularly by interactions with TRAF1, 2, and 3 cytoplasmic proteins leading to NF-κB activation
• The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes
• This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry
• With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter
• BUV395 is a UV-excitable dye that has been developed exclusively by BD Biosciences
• With an excitation max of 348 nm and emission max of 395 nm, BUV395 can be excited by the 355nm laser and detected in a 379/28 filter
• This dye is optimal for multicolor flow cytometry because it has little to no spillover into other detectors.
