PE Mouse Anti-Human PD-L1 (CD274)
PE Mouse Anti-Human PD-L1 (CD274)
Flow cytometric analysis of human PD-L1 (CD274) expression on activated human lymphocytes. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) for 3 days and were stained with either Mouse IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555058; dotted line histogram) or PE Mouse Anti-Human PD-L1 (CD274) antibody (Cat. No. 568079/568080; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histogram showing the expression of CD274 (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of activated viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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 the dye under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free dye were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

The 29E.2A3 monoclonal antibody can reportedly bind to Alexa Fluor™ 700 antibody conjugates during multicolor immunofluorescence staining experiments. This interaction may be circumvented by sequentially staining with the 29E.2A3 antibody first, followed by a wash step, and then further staining with an Alexa Fluor™ 700 antibody conjugate of interest.

BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells.  However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

29E.2A3

The 29E.2A3 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PDCD1 ligand 1, PDCD1L1, PDCD1LG1) which is also known as Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1 or PDL1) as well as CD274, or B7 homolog 1 (B7-H1, B7H1). PD-L1 (CD274) and PD-L2 (CD273) are type I transmembrane glycoproteins that belong to the B7 family within the Ig gene superfamily and serve as ligands for CD279 (Program Death 1/PD-1). PD-L1 (CD274) is expressed on antigen-presenting cells including activated monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs) as well as activated T cells, B cells, NK cells, and keratinocytes. PD-L1 (CD274) is also variably expressed on placental trophoblasts, myocardial endothelium, cortical thymic epithelial cells, and tumor cells. PD-L1-mediated signaling through PD-1 regulates T cell responses important for providing protective immunity while maintaining peripheral tolerance. This immune signaling checkpoint may also suppress antitumor immune responses and prevent tumor rejection. The 29E.2A3 antibody reportedly blocks PD-L1 (CD274) binding to CD279 (PD-1) and can enhance the proliferation and cytokine production of activated T cells.

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.
