Two-color flow cytometric analysis of CD25 expression on unstimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human whole blood was stained with Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 557707) and either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554680; Left Plot) or PE Mouse Anti-Human CD25 antibody (Cat. No. 567214; Right Plot) at 0.25 µg/test. Erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of CD25 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD4 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.
Flow cytometric analysis of CD25 expression on activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated for 3 days with Phytohemagglutinin (PHA). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (dashed line histogram) or PE Mouse Anti-Human CD25 antibody (solid line histogram) at 0.25 µg/test. DAPI (4',6-Diamidino-2-Phenylindole, Dihydrochloride) Solution (Cat. No. 564907) was added to cells right before analysis. The fluorescence histogram showing CD25 expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable (DAPI-) lymphoblasts. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
BD™ CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to 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 CompBead to ensure that BD Comp beads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- 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.

The BC96 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to human CD25, the low-affinity alpha subunit of the Interleukin-2 Receptor (IL-2Rα), which is also known as TAC antigen. IL2RA encodes CD25 which is a 55 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein comprised of an extracellular region with two Complement Control Protein domains (CCP) followed by a transmembrane region and a short cytoplasmic tail. CD25 is constitutively expressed at high levels on natural T regulatory cells and variably expressed on conventional T cells and B cells and their precursors, NK cells, monocytes, and macrophages. CD25 expression can be highly upregulated upon antigenic or mitogenic stimulation of T cells or B cells. A soluble form of CD25 is found in biological fluids due to proteolytic cleavage of the extracellular region of transmembrane CD25. CD25 noncovalently associates with CD122 (IL-2Rβ chain) and CD132 (IL-2Rγ, also known as the common γ chain or γc) to form the high-affinity signal-transducing IL-2R complex (IL-2Rαβγ). This heterotrimeric receptor mediates biological activities of IL-2 which can act as a cellular activation, growth, and differentiation factor and regulator of cell viability. Analysis of CD25 expression can be used to characterize the nature of normal leucocytes in their resting states or activated during inflammatory or immune responses as well as those present in certain disease states.
