BV421 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD183
BV421 Hamster Anti-Mouse CD183
Multicolor flow cytometric analysis of CD183 (CXCR3) expression on C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes. Spleen cells were stained with BD Pharmingen™ APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD62L (Cat. No. 553152/561919) and with either BD Horizon™ BV421 Armenian Hamster IgG1 κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562601; Left Panel) or BD Horizon™ BV421 Armenian Hamster Anti-Mouse CD183 (Cat. No. 562937; Right Panel). The erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). Two-color flow cytometric dot plots show the correlated expression patterns of CD183/CXCR3 (or Ig isotype control staining) versus CD62L for gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable splenocytes. Flow cytometry was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer 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 the dye under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free dye were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

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.

For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

CXCR3-173

The CXCR3-173 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to mouse CD183, also known as CXCR3. CD183 is a seven transmembrane spanning, G protein-coupled chemokine receptor for CXC chemokines including CXCL9 (Mig), CXCL10 (IP-10) and CXCL11 (I-TAC). These chemokines are induced by inflammatory cytokines including IFN-γ, IFN-α/β, and TNF. CXCR3 is primarily expressed on activated/memory CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes, Foxp+ regulatory T cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells and mature NK cells. Binding of chemokines to CXCR3 induces integrin activation, cytoskeletal changes, and chemotactic migration of activated lymphocytes. CD183 has been reported to play important roles in T cell recruitment and immune responses in a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The CXCR3-173 antibody reportedly inhibited in vitro chemotactic responses to CXCL10 or CXCL11 significantly but not to CXCL9. When administered systemically to mouse hosts, the CXCR3-173 antibody reportedly prolonged cardiac and pancreatic islet cell allograft survival. In the presence of CXCR3 ligands, especially, CXCL10 and CXCL11, staining with the antibody can be significantly blocked.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max near 407 nm and Em Max near 421 nm, BD Horizon™ BV421 can be excited by the violet laser (405 nm) and detected with a 450/50 nm filter. BD Horizon™ BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue™ conjugates. Due to nearly identical excitation and emission properties but different spillover characteristics, BD Horizon™ BV421, Pacific Blue™, and BD Horizon™ V450 cannot be used simultaneously.

BV421
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
