Product Specific Information

Description: The monoclonal antibody BB27 reacts to human CD101 also known as V7 antigen, a member of the Ig superfamily. CD101 is a disulfide linked homodimer of unknown function. Expression of CD101 is found on monocytes, granulocytes and dendritic cells (Langerhan-like cells HLA-DR, CD1a, CD1c). In addition expression on T lymphocytes is important for cell activation. CD101+ CD28+ cells are very responsive to CD28 signaling. In combination with anti-CD28 or suboptimal levels of anti-CD3, anti-CD101 can increase proliferation thereby suggesting an activating role. The monoclonal antibody BB27 has been shown to inhibit the T cell reactivity in allogeneic and antigen-specific mixed DC-T cell cultures. Recently it has been demonstrated that mouse CD101 is found on a subpopulation of regulatory T cells (CD4, CD25, Foxp3 positive) that have high suppressor activity. Expression of CD101 on human PBMCs shows staining of about 30% of the Foxp3 positive cells. Studies have not confirmed higher suppressor activity in the human CD101 population.

Applications Reported: This BB27 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This BB27 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
