BD Pharmingen™ PE Rat Anti-Mouse VISTA

Name: PE Rat Anti-Mouse VISTA
Brand: BD Pharmingen™
SKU: 566269

Clone MIH64

(RUO)

Two-color flow cytometric analysis of VISTA expression on mouse splenocytes. Mouse splenic leucocytes were stained with BD Horizon™ BV421 Rat Anti-Mouse CD8a antibody (Cat. No. 563898) and either PE Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 553930; Left Plot) or PE Rat Anti-Mouse VISTA antibody (Cat. No. 566269/566270; Right Plot). Two-color flow cytometric contour plots showing the correlated expression of CD8a versus VISTA (or Ig isotype control staining) were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable splenocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ Canto II Flow Cytometry System.

Alternative Name: Vista; PD-1H; Dies1

Reactivity: Mouse (QC Testing)

Isotype: Rat IgG2a, κ

Immunogen: Mouse VISTA Transfected Cell Line

Application: Flow cytometry (Routinely Tested)

Concentration: 0.2 mg/ml

Entrez Gene ID: 387836

RRID: AB_2744494

Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing ≤0.09% sodium azide.

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 with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

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.

Antibody Details

MIH64

The MIH64 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) which is also known as, Differentiation of ESCs 1 (Dies1). VISTA is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Ig superfamily. VISTA has homology to the B7 family ligand, PD-L1 (CD274), and is likewise known as PD-1H. VISTA is expressed on naïve and activated T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. VISTA functions as an inhibitory ligand. It can serve as a negative immune-checkpoint protein that suppresses T cell cytokine production and proliferation. It is also involved in regulating stem cell differentiation.

Format Details

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.

Format: PE

Excitation Source: Yellow-Green 488 nm, 532 nm, 561 nm
