Flow cytometric analysis of Integrin β7 expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Whole blood was stained with either Purified Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555841; dashed line histogram) or Purified Rat Anti-Integrin β7 antibody (Cat. No. 555943; solid line histogram). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD FACS Lysing Solution (Cat. No. 349202). Secondary staining was carried out with FITC Goat Anti-Rat Ig (Cat. No. 554016). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact lymphocytes. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ system.

Preparation And Storage
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.
- Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.
- Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.

The FIB504 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes mouse integrin β7 subunit (130 kDa) but also crossreacts with human integrin β7. Integrin β7 associates with α4 (CD49d) expressed on subsets of lymphocytes and thymocytes. It also associates with αIEL (CD103) expressed on T cells adjacent to mucosal epithelium and intraepithelial lymphocytes. Integrin β7 plays an important role in the adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells promoting the transmigration of leucocytes to extravascular spaces during the inflammatory response.
