PE Mouse Anti-Human CD324 (E-Cadherin)
PE Mouse Anti-Human CD324 (E-Cadherin)
Flow Cytometric Analysis of CD324 (E-cadherin) on human breast adenocarcinoma (left) and human embryonic stem (ES) cells (right). Human breast adenocarcinoma cell line MCF-7 (ATCC, HTB-22) and H9 human ES Cells (WiCell, Madison, WI) were harvested with Cell Dissociation Buffer (Life Technologies). Please note that the epitope is sensitive to Accutase™ detachment. Cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, k isotype control (Cat. No. 554680; dashed line) or PE Mouse anti-human CD324 antibody (Cat. No. 562870; solid line) at matched concentrations. Histograms were derived from gated events based on light scattering characteristics of MCF-7 or human ES cells. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCanto™ II flow cytometry system. Staining with this antibody can also performed on cells that have been fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) and permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm/Wash Buffer I (Cat. No. 557885). However, the brightness of the staining decreases after cell fixation and permeabilization.

Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Recommended Assay Procedures

In addition to standard cell surface staining of live cells, this antibody conjugate may also be used to stain cells that have been fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) and permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm/Wash Buffer I (Cat. No. 557885). Because the brightness of the staining decreases after cell fixation and permeabilization, the reagent titer may need to be adjusted.

Product Notices

  1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  4. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  5. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
  6. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

67A4

The 67A4 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the extracellular domain of human E-Cadherin (CD324). E-Cadherin is a 120-kDa transmembrane glycoprotein that is localized in the adherens junctions of epithelial cells. There it interacts with the cytoskeleton through the associated cytoplasmic catenin proteins.  In addition to being a calcium-dependent adhesion molecule, E-Cadherin is also a critical regulator of epithelial junction formation. Its association with catenins is necessary for cell-to-cell adhesion. These E-Cadherin/catenin complexes associate with cortical actin bundles at both the zonula adherens and the lateral adhesion plaques.  Tyrosine phosphorylation can disrupt these complexes, leading to changes in cell adhesion properties. E-Cadherin expression is often down-regulated in highly invasive, poorly differentiated carcinomas. Increased expression of E-Cadherin in these cells reduces their invasiveness. Thus, loss of expression or function of E-Cadherin appears to be an important step in tumorigenic progression. Pluripotent stem cells express E-Cadherin. Upon differentiation, an epithelial to mesenchymal transition results in the loss of E-cadherin expression and a gain in the expression of N-cadherin.

PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
