The Mouse Monoclonal anti-CD40 Ligand antibody has been validated for FACS. It is suitable to detect CD40 Ligand in samples from Human and Non-Human Primate.
The mouse monoclonal antibody 24-31 detects an extracellular epitope of CD154 / CD40L (CD40-ligand), a 39 kDa cell surface type II glycoprotein expressed predominantly on activated CD4+ lymphocytes.
Purification
Purified antibody is conjugated with activated allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Background
CD40 ligand,CD154 / CD40L (CD40 ligand) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor family, and is expressed primarily on activated CD4+ lymphocytes, but also on mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and human dendritic cells. Its counter-receptor CD40 is expressed on antigen presenting cells, including dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells, and also on fibroblasts. Triggering of CD40 by CD40L causes maturation of dendritic cells and upregulation of antigen presentation in functions of the MHC and costimulatory molecules. CD40L also functions as a direct stimulating factor for T cells. CD40L plays also roles e.g. in antibody class switching and modulation of apoptosis in the germinal center.,CD40L, CD40 ligand, TNFSF5, Ly62, gp39, T-BAM
