CD25 antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN94046

Product Details anti-CD25 Antibody (FITC)

Target: CD25 (IL2RA) (Interleukin 2 Receptor, alpha (IL2RA))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD25 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody MEM-181 reacts with an extracellular epitope of CD25 (Interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain), a 55 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on activated B and T lymphocytes, activated monocytes/macrophages and on CD4+ T lymphocytes (T regulatory cells), it is lost on resting B and T lymphocytes.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: PHA-activated peripheral blood leucocytes

Clone: MEM-181

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Comment:

The purified antibody is conjugated with Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions. The reagent is free of unconjugated FITC and adjusted for direct use. No reconstitution is necessary.

Background: Interleukin 2 receptor subunit alpha,CD25 (IL2Ralpha, Tac) is a ligand-binding alpha subunit of interleukin 2 receptor (IL2R). Together with beta and gamma subunit CD25 constitues the high affinity IL2R, whereas CD25 alone serves as the low affinity IL2R. CD25 expression rapidly increases upon T cell activation. The 55 kDa CD25 Molecule is enzymatically cleaved and shed from the cell surface as a soluble 45 kDa s-Tac, whose concentration in serum can be used as a marker of T cell activation. Expression of CD25 indicates the neoplastic phenotype of mast cells. Humanized anti CD25 antibodies represent a useful tool to reduce the incidence of allograft rejection as well as the severity of graft versus host reaction, and radioimmunoconjugates of anti-CD25 antibodies can be used against CD25 expressing lymphomas.,IL-2R α, chain, IL-2-RA, IL2-RA, p55, TAC antigen, IDDM10, TCGFR
