BD Pharmingen™ Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-Human CD31
Clone M89D3 (RUO)




Immunohistofluorescent analysis of CD31 expression by cells within human tonsil (Left Panel). A human tonsil cryosection (5 µm) was fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), blocked with 5% goat serum and 1% BSA diluted in 1x PBS, and stained with Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human CD31 antibody (Cat. No. 558094, pseudo-colored green), Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse Anti-Human CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 557695, pseudo-colored red), and BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Human CD19 antibody (Cat. No. 562440/562441, pseudo-colored blue). Images were captured on a standard epifluorescence microscope. Original magnification, 20x. Analysis of CD31 in human peripheral blood granulocytes (Right Panel). Normal human peripheral blood cells were stained with either Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-Human CD31 (Cat. No. 558094, solid line) or Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (clone G155-178, Cat. No. 557715, dotted line). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD™ FACSCalibur flow cytometry 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.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
- Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
- 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.

The M89D3 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD31, which is also known as platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule -1 (PECAM-1), a single chain, type I transmembrane protein of approximately 130-140 kDa. CD31 is a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family. Its extracellular region is composed of 574 amino acids and contains six C2-type Ig domains, and the intracellular region is composed of 118 residues. CD31 (PECAM-1) is expressed on endothelial cells, platelets, monocytes, neutrophils and NK cells. It has also been observed on subsets of T cells, but not on circulating B cells. It has been implicated in a number of cellular phenomena, including vascular wound healing, angiogenesis, and transendothelial migration of leukocytes and platelet aggregation in inflammatory responses.
