      APC Mouse anti-Stat3
      APC Mouse anti-Stat3
      Analysis of Stat3 in human peripheral blood lymphocytes.  Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37ºC, then permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for 30 minutes, and then stained with either APC Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554681, shaded histogram) or APC Mouse anti-Stat3 (Cat. No. 560392, open histogram). For data analysis, lymphocytes were selected by their scatter profile. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

      Analysis of Stat3 in human epithelioid carcinoma.  HeLa S3 cells (ATCC CCL 2.2) were either transfected with Stat3 RNAi (shaded histogram) or untreated (open histogram).  The cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37°C, then permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for 30 minutes, and then stained with APC Mouse anti-Stat3. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSArray™ bioanalyzer system.

      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.

      Recommended Assay Procedures

      This antibody conjugate is suitable for intracellular staining of human cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells using BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer.  Either BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer II or Perm Buffer III may be used.  We have observed that BD Phosflow™ Perm/Wash Buffer I gives unsatisfactory results with this antibody.

      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. 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.
      5. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
      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.

      M59-50

      Stat (Signal transducer and activators of transcription) proteins are critical mediators of the biologic activity of cytokines, including interleukins, interferons, erythropoietin, and growth factors.  Ligand-receptor interaction leads to activation of constitutively associated JAK family kinases and subsequent recruitment/activation of Stat proteins by tyrosine phosphorylation.  Active Stat proteins then move to the nucleus to promote transcription of cytokine-inducible genes.  Stat3 is a 92-kDa protein that is activated as a DNA-binding protein through cytokines, such as IL-6, and growth factors, such as EGF. Upon activation, Stat3 dimerizes, translocates to the nucleus and binds DNA response elements, thereby regulating gene expression. It has been reported that Stat3 binds to DNA as a homodimer, but it is also capable of binding as a heterodimer with Stat1. Stat3 is widely expressed and can bind to the sis-inducible element (SIE) site from the c-fos promoter. This site is similar to the GAS element that is present in IFN-γ induced genes.

      The M59-50 monoclonal antibody recognizes Stat3 (isoform 1) regardless of phosphorylation status. The specificity of this antibody conjugate for flow cytometric analysis was validated by confirming that RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) of the specific protein reduced the staining of the cells (see figure).  Furthermore, the capacity of the RNAi to down-regulate the expression of the relevant protein was confirmed by western blot analysis.

      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.
