Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. This preparation contains no preservatives, thus it should be handled under aseptic conditions.

Recommended Assay Procedures

For IHC, we recommend the use of purified 429 mAb in our special formulation for immunohistochemistry, Cat. No. 550547.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.

429 (MVCAM.A)

The 429 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to both the long (~110 kDa) transmembrane-spanning form and the truncated (~47 kDa) GPI-linked form of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1, CD106). CD106 is constitutively expressed on bone marrow stromal cells, myeloid cells, and splenic dendritic cells. Its expression on endothelial cells is upregulated by inflammatory cytokines and in certain pathologic conditions. CD106 expression has also been detected on apoptotic thymocytes, splenocytes, and lymphoid cell lines. VCAM-1 is a counter-receptor for VLA-4 (α4β1 integrin) and LPAM-1 (α4β7 integrin), and the 429 antibody partially blocks VCAM-1-mediated binding functions. Source of the immunogen was the mouse preadipose cell line PA6.

NA/LE
NA/LE refers to the culture and purification methods and buffer used to produce purified antibodies with no azide and low endotoxin: Aqueous buffered solution containing no preservative, 0.2µm sterile filtered. Endotoxin level is ≤0.01 EU/µg (≤0.001 ng/µg) of protein as determined by the LAL assay.NA/LE are perfectly suited to be used in culture or in vivo (for nonhuman studies) for functional assays — blocking, neutralizing, activation or depletion — where the presence of azide may damage cells or exogenous endotoxin may signal or activate cells.
