R718 Biosimilar Anti-Human CD20 Rituximab297
Two-color flow cytometric analysis of Human CD20 (Rituximab Biosimilar) expression on Human peripheral blood lymphocytes.  Human whole blood was stained with BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Human CD19 antibody (Cat. No. 562440) and with either BD OptiBuild™ R718 IgG1, κ N297A Human Isotype Control (Cat. No. 756246; Left Plot) or BD Horizon™ R718 Biosimilar Anti-Human CD20 Rituximab297 antibody  (Cat. No. 570364/570434; Right Plot). The erythrocytes were lysed with BD FACS™ Lysing Solution (Cat. No. 349202). The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of CD20 (Rituximab Biosimilar) [or Ig Isotype control staining] versus CD19 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ Software.

Preparation And Storage

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 unreacted dye was removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

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.

  2. 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.
  3. 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).
  4. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  5. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

Rituximab297.rMAb

The Rituximab297.rMAb (also known as, Rituximab N297A Biosimilar.rMAb) is a research grade chimeric recombinant human IgG1, kappa antibody that specifically recognizes the extracellular domain of human CD20 similarly to the therapeutic Rituximab antibody. The Rituximab297.rMAb uses the same variable region sequences as Rituximab, combined with constant region sequences derived from consensus sequences of human IgG1, kappa. The asparagine at position 297 of the constant heavy chain has been replaced with alanine (N297A) to further reduce Fc receptor interactions of this reagent. Rituximab triggers target cell death through multiple mechanisms including complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), and apoptosis. The therapeutic Rituximab has been approved to treat human B cell malignancies, autoimmune disorders, and transplant rejection. CD20 is a 33-37 kDa, unglycosylated four-transmembrane phosphoprotein with a cytoplasmic N-terminus and C-terminus that is encoded by MS4A1 (Membrane-spanning 4-domains, subfamily A, member 1). CD20 is expressed on pre-B-cells, naive and activated B cells, memory B cells, and at lower levels on a small subset of T cells but is absent from plasmablasts and plasma cells. It is also expressed on most malignant B cells and CD20-positive T-cell lymphomas. CD20 functions in mediating calcium transport and B cell activation, differentiation, and survival.

   The Rituximab297.rMAb is intended for research use only. It is not intended for use in therapeutic or diagnostic procedures for humans or animals.

R718
The BD Horizon™ Red 718 (R718) Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. It is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 695-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 718-nm. Driven by BD innovation, R718 is designed to be excited by the red laser (627–640-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 720-nm (e.g., a 720/40-nm bandpass filter). R718 is a brighter alternative to Alexa Fluor™ 700. R718 is also a bright small molecule alternative to APC-R700 with lower spread into the APC detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
