For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
The 1F11monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the P2X7 receptor. P2X7 is also known as the P2X7 Receptor (P2X7R), Purinergic receptor P2X ligand-gated ion channel 7 (P2RX7), P2X7 purinoceptor, P2Z receptor, or ATP receptor. P2X7 is differentially expressed on a wide variety of cell types including T cells, B cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, mast cells, neurons, microglia, and astrocytes. Functional P2X receptors exist as trimers. Each P2X7 monomer contains intracellular N and C termini, two transmembrane domains, and a large extra cellular loop. When present at relatively high levels, extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) binds to the P2X7 receptor and opens a channel for extracellular cation (eg, Na+, K+, Ca++) influx into cells. The P2X7 receptor-mediated cation influx can cause membrane depolarization and Ca++ mediated signaling cascades that trigger cellular responses, eg, the production and/or release of proinflammatory mediators (eg, IL-1β or IL-18) by cells of the immune system. P2X7 is also implicated in mediating ATP-induced apoptosis of cells. The 1F11 antibody reportedly blocks ATP-mediated cellular activation through P2X7R.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV650 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 650-nm. BD Horizon BV650 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect APC-like dyes (eg, 660/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor® 700 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
