Two-color flow cytometric analysis of MCP-1 expression in human periphereal blood mononuclear cells. Human PBMC were cultured (6 hr) with Recombinant Human IFN-γ (Cat. No. 554617/554616; 10 ng/ml) and lipopolysaccharide (Sigma, Cat. No. L-8274; 1.0 μg/ml) in the presence of BD GolgiStop™ Protein Transport Inhibitor (containing Monensin) (Cat. No. 554724). The cells were harvested, washed with BD Pharmingen™ Stain Buffer (FBS) (Cat. No. 554656) and stained with FITC Mouse Anti-Human CD14 antibody (Cat. No. 555397/557153/561712). After washing, the cells were fixed and permeabilized with BD Cytofix/Cytoperm™ Fixation and Permeabilization Solution (Cat. No. 554722). The cells were then stained in BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723) with either Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse IgG1 κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 557732; Left Panel) or Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human MCP-1 antibody (Cat. No. 563496; Right Panel) using BD Biosciences Intracellular Cytokine Staining protocol. Two-color flow cytometric dot plots show the correlated expression patterns of MCP-1 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD14 for gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact stimulated PBMC. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System.

Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- 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).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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 Alexa Fluor®, Pacific Blue™, and Cascade Blue® dye antibody conjugates in this product are sold under license from Molecular Probes, Inc. for research use only, excluding use in combination with microarrays, or as analyte specific reagents. The Alexa Fluor® dyes (except for Alexa Fluor® 430), Pacific Blue™ dye, and Cascade Blue® dye are covered by pending and issued patents.
- Alexa Fluor® is a registered trademark of Molecular Probes, Inc., Eugene, OR.
- Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
- Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.

The 5D3-F7 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to human monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), also known as CCL2 (C-C motif chemokine 2), Monocyte chemotactic and activating factor (MCAF), and Small-inducible cytokine A2 (SCYA2). MCP-1 is a 10-14 kDa glycoprotein member of the beta or CC family of chemokines. It expressed by monocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells and other cell types in response to IL-1, IL-6, TNF, and a variety of other stimuli. MCP-1 binds to and exerts its biological activity through G-protein coupled chemokine receptors including CCR2/CD192 and CCR4/CD194. It serves as a chemoattractant and activating factor for monocytes and other cell types including T cells, NK cells, and basophils.
MCP-1 is a member of the CC chemokine family and it is produced by monocytes, T lymphocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, keratinocytes and some tumors. Its production can be induced by LPS or IFN-γ. Clone 5D3-F7 also cross reacts with an intracellular component of LPS-stimulated (24 hours) peripheral blood monocytes of rhesus and cynomolgus macaque monkeys. The staining pattern observed on non-human primate monocytes is not as strong as that seen on normal human peripheral blood monocytes.
