R718 Mouse Anti-Human CD104 (Integrin β4)
R718 Mouse Anti-Human CD104 (Integrin β4)

Flow cytometric analysis of CD104 (Integrin β4) expression on Human A-431 cells.  Cells from the Human A-431 (Human epidermoid carcinoma, ATCC® CRL-1555™) cell line were stained with either BD Horizon™ R718 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 566928; dashed line histogram) or BD Horizon™ R718 Mouse Anti-Human CD104 (Integrin β4) antibody (Cat. No. 570782/570860; solid line histogram). DAPI Solution (Cat. No. 564907) was added to cells right before analysis. The fluorescence histogram showing CD104 (Integrin β4) expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable (DAPI-negative) cells. 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.

Product Notices

  1. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  2. 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).
  3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  4. 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.
  5. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  6. Human donor specific background has been observed in relation to the presence of anti-polyethylene glycol (PEG) antibodies, developed as a result of certain vaccines containing PEG, including some COVID-19 vaccines. We recommend use of BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer in your experiments to help mitigate potential background.

ASC-8

The ASC-8 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD104 which is also known as Integrin beta 4 (Integrin β4 or β4 Integrin). Integrins mediate important intercellular and cell-extracellular matrix interactions which are essential for cellular adhesion and migration as well as for regulating cellular growth and survival. CD104 (Integrin β4) is an ~205 kDa single-pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by ITGB4 (Integrin subunit beta 4). CD104 (Integrin β4) noncovalently associates with CD49f (Integrin α6 chain) to form the Integrin α6/β4 (CD49f/CD104) complex. CD104 (Integrin β4) is expressed on basal epithelial cells, Schwann cells, and some endothelial cells and tumor cells. The CD49f/CD104 complex serves as  an adhesion receptor that binds to laminins and keratin filaments. It is a component of epidermal hemidesmosomes that facilitate the stable adhesion of basal epithelial cells to the underlying basement membrane.

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.
