This antibody recognises lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LT beta R), a member of the tumour necrosis factor family. LT beta R is primarily expressed on stromal cells and fibroblasts and at lower levels on myeloid cell lines. Clone 5G11b specifically recognises surface expressed LT beta R. The clone is reported to be agonistic with respect to NF Kappa B activation, MIP-2 induction and IL-6 release (2). This product is routinely tested on mouse WEHI cells.
Flow Cytometry: use 10 μL of the suggested working dilution to label 10^6 cells in 100 μL. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.
This product contains sodium azide: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only.

(Lymphotoxin beta Receptor (TNFR Superfamily, Member 3) (LTBR))
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family of receptors. It is expressed on the surface of most cell types, including cells of epithelial and myeloid lineages, but not on T and B lymphocytes. The protein specifically binds the lymphotoxin membrane form (a complex of lymphotoxin alpha and lymphtoxin beta). The encoded protein and its ligand play a role in the development and organization of lymphoid tissue and tranformed cells. Activation of the encoded protein can trigger apoptosis.Synonyms: D12S370, Lymphotoxin-beta receptor, TNF-R3, TNFCR, TNFRSF3, Tumor necrosis factor C receptor, Tumor necrosis factor receptor 2-related protein, Tumor necrosis factor receptor 3, Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 3, Tumor necrosis factor receptor type III
