Flow cytometric analysis of human RORγt expression in human SR cells. Cells from the human SR cell line (ATCC CRL-2262) were fixed and permeabilized using the BD Pharmingen™ Transcription Factor Buffer Set (Cat. No. 562574/562725) and then stained with either BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562748; dashed line histogram) or BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Human RORγt antibody (Cat. No. 563282; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System.

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.
- 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.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

The Q21-559 monoclonal antibody recognizes ROR gamma t (RORγt), an isoform of ROR gamma (RORγ). RORγt is a DNA-binding transcription factor that is encoded by the RORC (RAR-related orphan receptor C) gene. It belongs to the ROR/RZR orphan nuclear receptor family. Two protein isoforms are produced from the RORC gene by alternative splicing: RORγ or RORγt. The RORγ isoform is expressed in many tissues, including thymus, lung, liver, kidney, muscle, and brown fat. However the tissue distribution of the second isoform RORγt is highly restricted to the thymus where it is expressed exclusively in immature CD4+CD8+ thymocytes and in peripheral Th17 and LTi cells. RORγt reportedly functions as an essential transcription factor for the development of secondary lymphoid tissues. It also plays an important regulatory role in thymopoiesis and effector T cell differentiation, especially for Th17 cells.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon™ Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407-nm and Em Max at 421-nm, BD Horizon™ BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50-nm filter). BD Horizon™ BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue™ conjugates.
