Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
Product Notices
- This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
- The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
- Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
- 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 V27-580 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to GITR (Glucocorticoid-Induced Tumor necrosis factor Receptor), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily that is designated TNFRSF18. In the human, GITR is expressed at low levels in peripheral blood T cells, bone marrow, thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes and is up-regulated upon antigen stimulation or by treatment with anti-CD3 plus anti-CD28. GITR is also reported to be constitutively expressed on Treg cells. GITR's ligand (GITRL) is a member of the TNF superfamily, is designated TNFSF18, and is expressed on antigen presenting cells. The GITR cytoplasmic domain has striking homology with the cytoplasmic domains of the co-stimulatory receptors CD137 (4-1BB), CD134 (OX40) and CD27. GITR signaling is mediated by signaling adaptors, TNFR-associated factors (TRAFs), that affect signaling pathways (eg, Erk, JNK, MAPK and NF-κB) to enhance T-cell survival and cytokine production. The effects of GITR signaling upon the dynamic and interconnected roles of effector and regulatory T lymphocytes in the immune response are under investigation.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry. With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter.
