APC Mouse Anti-Human CD209
APC Mouse Anti-Human CD209
Flow cytometric analysis of CD209 expression on peripheral blood monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Adherent peripheral blood mononuclear cells were cultured for 7 days with the recombinant human cytokines, GM-CSF (Cat. No. 550068), TNF (Cat. No. 554618), and IL-4 (Cat. No. 554605). The cultured dendritic cells were harvested and stained with either APC Mouse IgG2 b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555745, open histogram) or APC Mouse Anti-Human CD209 (Cat. No. 551545; filled histogram).

Preparation And Storage

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

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. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  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. This APC-conjugated reagent can be used in any flow cytometer equipped with a dye, HeNe, or red diode laser.
  7. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.

DCN46

The DCN46 antibody specifically binds to dendritic cell-specific ICAM-3 grabbing nonintegrin (DC-SIGN or CD209), a type-II membrane protein of approximately 44 kDa with a mannose-binding C-type lectin domain.  It is highly expressed on dendritic cells in mucosal tissues.  Its sequence is identical to the HIV-1 envelope gp120-binding C-type lectin, and reports suggest that DC-SIGN binds to HIV-1 gp120 and effectively transmits infectious HIV-1 to resting T lymphocytes expressing CD4 and chemokine receptors.  The C-type lectin domain of DC-SIGN is also capable of binding other pathogenic viruses, bacteria, and parasites.  Reports also suggest that DC-SIGN enables the highly efficient migration of dendritic cells from blood into the tissues.  It can interact with ICAM-2, which has a similar sequence as ICAM-3, and is abundantly expressed on vascular and lymphoid endothelium.  Thus, DC-SIGN mediates dendritic cells rolling and transendothelial migration, and its interaction with ICAM-2 is essential to specific migratory functions of dendritic cells.

APC
Allophycocyanin (APC), is part of the BD family of phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 651 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 660 nm. APC is designed to be excited by the Red (627-640 nm) laser and detected using an optical filter centered near 660 nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
