Product Details

Specificity: The antigen is a (glyco-)protein of 140  kDa m.w. which is located within the cytoplasm and on the cell surface. The epitope has not been further characterized. Antigen distribution: Isolated cells: In the cytospin preparation of thioglycollate stimulated peritoneal exudate cells MOMA-2 detects an antigen as distinct cytoplasmic spots. MOMA-2 detects monocytes of the peripheral blood and a subpopulation of bone marrow cells Tissue sections MOMA-2 detects typical tissue macrophages as does the anti F4/80-specific clone BM8 (pan macrophage marker). However, different staining patterns are visible as shown below. The most predominant difference can be observed in T-cell areas and follicles of peripheral lymphoid organs where the anti F4/80 clone BM8 is negative. Specificity: Mouse: monocytes and macrophages. Other species: not tested.
