BV421 Rat Anti-Mouse CD135
Multicolor flow cytometric analysis of CD135 expression on mouse bone-marrow leukocytes. BALB/c mouse bone-marrow cells were stained with PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD45R/B220 (Cat. No. 553090/553089/561878) and PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD11b (Cat. No. 553311/557397/561689) antibodies and with either BD Horizon™ BV421 Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562602, Left Panel) or BD Horizon™ BV421Rat Anti-Mouse CD135 antibody (Cat. No. 562898, Right Panel). Two-color flow cytometric dot plots show the correlated expression patterns of CD135 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD45R/B220 and CD11b for gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable bone marrow cells. Flow cytometry was performed using a BD LSR™ II Flow Cytometry System.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with BD Horizon BV421 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon BV421 were removed.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

A2F10.1

The A2F10 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Flk-2/Flt3 (Ly-72, CD135), a receptor protein tyrosine kinase closely related to c-kit, c-fms, and PDGF Receptor of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The Flt3 message is detected in hematopoietic stem cells and primitive progenitor cells in fetal liver, adult bone marrow, and fetal and adult thymus, as well as brain, placenta, and testis; but it is absent in more mature hematopoietic cells. In flow cytometric analysis, the A2F10 antibody recognizes Flt3-transfected Y3 cells (rat myeloma), but not the parent cell line in addition to recognizing early B lymphoid lineage cells in juvenile and adult bone marrow. A role for CD135 in the regulation of hematopoiesis is suggested by the observations that soluble Flk-2/Flt3 ligand can both stimulate proliferation of stem cell-enriched fetal liver, fetal thymus, and adult bone marrow populations and enhance their responses to other growth factors in vitro. In addition, injection of Flk-2/Flt3 ligand stimulates extramedullary hematopoiesis in the mouse spleen and accumulation of dendritic cells in the hematopoietic system.  mAb A2F10.1 is reported to immunoprecipitate a 150-kDa surface protein from the murine myeloblast cell line M1, which naturally expresses CD135, and to inhibit the binding of Flk-2/Flt3 ligand to CD135.

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.

BV421
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
