Activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (LN-3 & HLA-DRB/1067)
Alternative Names:
DRB1, HLA class II histocompatibility antigen, DR-1 beta chain, HLA-DR-beta 1, HLA-DRB1, human leucocyte antigen DRB1, Leucocyte antigen DR beta 1 chain, lymphocyte antigen DRB1, major histocompatibility complex, class II, DR beta 1, MHC class II HLA-DR beta 1 chain, MHC class II HLA-DR-beta cell surface glycoprotein
This MAb reacts with the beta-chain of HLA-DRB1 antigen, a member of MHC class II molecules. It does not cross react with HLA-DP and HLA-DQ. HLA-DR is a heterodimeric cell surface glycoprotein comprised of a 36 kDa alpha (heavy) chain and a 28 kDa beta (light) chain. It is expressed on B-cells, activated T-cells, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells and other non-professional APCs. In conjunction with the CD3/TCR complex and CD4 molecules, HLA-DR is critical for efficient peptide presentation to CD4 T cells. It is an excellent histiocytic marker in paraffin sections producing intense cytoplasmic staining. True histiocytic neoplasms are similarly positive. HLA-DR antigens also occur on a variety of epithelial cells and their corresponding neoplastic counterparts. Loss of HLA-DR expression is related to tumor microenvironment and predicts adverse outcome in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF Dyes and other labels. CF Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF405S and CF405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
Higher concentration may be required for direct detection using primary antibody conjugates than for indirect detection with secondary antibody|Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1 ug/mL|Immunohistology formalin-fixed 0.25-0.5 ug/mL|Staining of formalin-fixed tissues is enhanced by boiling tissue sections in 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes|Flow Cytometry 0.5-1 ug/million cells/0.1 mL|Western blotting 0.5-1 ug/mL|Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined by user
