PE Mouse Anti-Human Active β2 Integrin (CD18)
Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of Active β2 Integrin (CD18) expression on untreated or stimulated Human peripheral blood leucocytes (PBL) collected with either heparin or EDTA anticoagulants.      Left Panel: PBL collected with heparin were either untreated (Top Plots) or were stimulated with 200 nM PMA (37°C, 20 min; Bottom Plots). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554680; Left Plots) or PE Mouse Anti-Human Active β2 Integrin (CD18) antibody (Cat. No. 567770/567796; Right Plots). Erythrocytes were then lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). The bivariate pseudocolor density plots showing the correlated expression of Active β2 Integrin (CD18) [or Ig Isotype control staining] versus side light-scatter (SSC-A) signals were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable leucocyte populations. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software.      Right Panel: PBL collected with the chelating agent, EDTA were similarly treated, stained and analyzed by multiparameter flow cytometry.

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.

  5. 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).
  6. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

mAb 24

mAb 24 (also known as 24 or m24) specifically recognizes a divalent cation-dependent epitope expressed by active human Integrin β2 which is also known as CD18. Integrin β2 is an ~95 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by ITGB2 (integrin subunit beta 2). Integrin β2 (CD18) noncovalently associates with other integrin α chains to form αLβ2 (CD11a/CD18; also known as, LFA-1), αMβ2 (CD11b/CD18; Mac-1, CR3), αXβ2 (CD11c/CD18; p150,95; CR4) and αDβ2 (CD11d/CD18) heterodimers. These integrins are variably expressed on lymphocytes, NK cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, macrophages, Langerhans cells, and dendritic cells (DCs). These leucocyte integrins bind to various ligands and mediate cellular adhesion and signaling responses that regulate cellular activation, effector function, and migration. mAb 24 binds to the extended/open, high-affinity ligand-binding conformation of active Integrin β2 (CD18). mAb 24 can be used as a reporter antibody for the activated status of Integrin β2-containing receptors expressed by leucocytes in response to various stimuli in the presence of Mg2+ or Mn2+.

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.
