Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human Galectin-3
Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human Galectin-3
Flow cytometric analysis of Galectin-3 expression by human peripheral blood monocytes. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655). After washing with BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723), the cells were stained with either Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 566011; dashed line histogram) or Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse Anti-Human Galectin-3 antibody (Cat. No. 565678; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histogram showing Galectin-3 expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact monocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer 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 to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed.

B2C10

The B2C10 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Galectin-3 (GAL3/Gal-3) which is also known as, IgE-binding protein (εBP/IgEBP), Carbohydrate-binding protein 35 (CBP35), Galactoside-binding protein (GALBP), or  MAC-2. Galectin-3 is a 30 kDa protein that is encoded by LGALS3 (lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 3) and belongs to the galactoside-binding lectins family. It is expressed by a variety of cell types including monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, some activated lymphocytes, fibroblasts, epithelial cells, and tumor cells. Galectin-3 has diverse functions and is involved in the induction and regulation of immune responses, inflammation, cell adhesion, chemotaxis, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and fibrosis. Galectin-3 can be differentially expressed in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and surface of cells and can be secreted. Galectin-3 levels can be markedly elevated in the nuclei of proliferating cells suggesting that it may play a role in cell growth regulation. Nuclear galectin-3 has been associated with gene expression and pre-mRNA splicing. Cell surface Galectin-3 reportedly serves as a non-integrin, laminin-binding protein, suggesting its role in cell adhesion to basement membranes. The B2C10 antibody is suitable for immunohistochemical staining of paraffin-embedded tissue sections. The B2C10 antibody reportedly crossreacts with mouse Galectin-3.

Alexa Fluor™ 647
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 653-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 669-nm. Alexa Fluor 647 is designed to be excited by the Red laser (627-640 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
