CD8 expression on peripheral blood lymphocytes. Pig whole blood was stained simultaneously with PE-conjugated 76-2-11 and FITC-conjugated anti-pig CD4a 74-12-4 (Cat. No. 559585) monoclonal antibodies. Erythrocytes were lysed (BD Pharm Lyse™ lysis buffer, Cat. No. 555899), nonviable leukocytes were excluded by staining with 7-AAD (BD Via-Probe™ cell viability dye, Cat. No. 555816/555815), and lymphocytes were gated according to scatter profile. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  3. 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.

76-2-11

The 76-2-11 (also known as clone PT8) monoclonal antibody specifically binds to an epitope on the CD8α chain, a 35-kDa antigen expressed on thymocytes, peripheral T lymphocytes, and NK cells. The CD8 molecule can exist as a 70 kDa homodimer, composed of α chains, or heterodimer, composed of an α and β chain. Cells which express the CD8αα homodimer display dimmer staining with mAb 76-2-11 than CDαβ-expressing cells. The 76-2-11 mAb does not cross-react with human or bovine cells. Two peripheral CD8+ T-cell populations can be distinguished in the pig: CD8-bright CD4- CTL effectors/precursors and CD8-dull CD4+ T-helper lymphocytes. Pig NK cells express CD8 (dull staining), CD2, MHC class II, LFA-1, and asialo-GM1, but not CD3, CD4, CD5, or CD6. mAb 76-2-11 has been reported to partially inhibit in vitro cytotoxic activity of PBL to allogeneic leukocytes, but not NK-cell-mediated lysis, and to deplete CD8+ T cells in vivo. This clone was clustered as anti-CD8a at the First International Swine CD workshop.

PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
