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 11G2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD156c which is also known as Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10 (ADAM10). CD156c is a ~70 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the ADAM family. It is widely expressed on hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. CD156c is expressed on the plasma membrane, as well as by membranes within intracellular compartments and exosomes. CD156c serves as a broadly-reactive endopeptidase that cleaves membrane-bound proteins in a process known as ectodomain shedding or release. It can cleave transmembrane molecules into soluble forms and thereby regulate the functions of a variety of different receptors and ligands that are involved in cellular signaling and adhesion. These include membrane TNF, CX3CL1, CXCL16, Ephrin-A2, Notch and Delta molecules, cadherins, CD23, CD44, IL-6 Receptor/CD126, CD171, and amyloid precursor protein. CD156c expression may be constitutive or induced, such as in inflamed tissues, including arthritic joints and in the nervous system. Dysregulated CD156c expression may be associated with certain cancers and Alzheimer's disease.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV563 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 which has an Ex Max of 348 nm and an acceptor dye. The tandem has an Em Max at 563 nm. BD Horizon BUV563 can be excited by the 355 nm ultraviolet laser. On instruments with a 561 nm Yellow-Green laser, the recommended bandpass filter is 585/15 nm with a 535 nm long pass to minimize laser light leakage. When BD Horizon BUV563 is used with an instrument that does not have a 561 nm laser, a 560/40 nm filter with a 535 nm long pass may be more optimal. Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be spillover into the PE and PE-CF594 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
