The Armenian Hamster Monoclonal anti-CD3 epsilon antibody has been validated for FACS, WB, IP, IHC (fro), IHC (f), BR and IHC (zinc). It is suitable to detect CD3 epsilon in samples from Mouse. There are 5+ publications available.
The 145-2C11 antibody reacts with the 25- kDa ε chain of the T-cell receptor-associated CD3 complex, which is expressed on thymocytes, mature T lymphocytes, and NK-T cells. The cytoplasmic domain of CD3e participates in the signal transduction events which activate several cellular biochemical pathways as a result of antigen recognition. Soluble 145-2C11 antibody can activate either unprimed (naive) or primed (memory/preactivated) T cells in vivo or in vitro, in the presence of Fc receptor-bearing accessory cells. In contrast, plate-bound 145-2C11 can activate T cells in the absence of accessory cells. Soluble 145-2C11 antibody has been reported to induce re-directed lysis of Fc receptor-bearing target cells by CTL clones and can also block lysis of specific target cells by antigen-specific CTL's. Under some conditions, T-cell activation by 145-2C11 antibody has been reported to result in apoptotic cell death. The 145-2C11 antibody does not cross-react with rat leukocytes and it has been reported that pre-incubation of thymus cell suspensions at 37 °C for 2-4 hours prior to staining enhances the ability of anti-CD3ε and anti-αβ TCR mAbs to detect the T-cell receptor on immature thymocytes. Immunohistochemical staining of T lymphocytes. The frozen section of normal mouse spleen was reacted with 145-2C11 mAb. The positive staining is represented by the brown labeling of cell-surface membranes of lymphocytes in the periarteriolar sheath.
