Invitrogen™ CD15 Monoclonal Antibody (MMA), APC, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  Invitrogen™ 17-0158-42

Product Code. 15537886

Description

Description: The MMA monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD15, Lewis X. This 3-fucosyl-N-acetyllactosamine carbohydrate moiety is expressed by granulocytes. Monocytes express this structure at varying degree while lymphocytes are negative. Applications Reported: This MMA antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This MMA antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. Excitation: 633-647 nm; Emission: 660 nm; Laser: Red Laser. Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered.

CD15 (Lewis X, Le(x); stage specific embryonic antigen-1, SSEA-1) is a trisacharide determinant (3-fucosyl-N-acetyllactosamine) expressed on several glycolipids, glycoproteins and proteoglycans of various cell types, e.g. granulocytes, mast cells, monocytes, macrophages, cells of gastric mucosa, nervous system or various tumour cells. There are several variants of Lewis x, such as sialyl-Lewis x or sulphated Lewis x. Cells with high surface expression of Le(x) antigen exhibit strong self-aggregation, based on calcium-dependent Le(x)-Le(x) interaction. This process is involved for example in embryo compaction or in autoaggregation of teratocarcinoma cells. Sialyl-Le(x) and its isomer sialyl-Le(a) are ligands of selectins. CD15 expression has been extensively used to confirm diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease.
