Preparation and Storage
推奨アッセイ手順
BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

The 25F.1D6 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD366 which is also known as TIM-3 (T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing 3, T-cell immunoglobulin mucin receptor 3, or T-cell membrane protein 3). CD366 (TIM-3) is an ~31 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by Havcr2 (Hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2) that belongs to the TIM family within the Ig superfamily. CD366 (TIM-3) is comprised of one IgV-type domain followed by a serine/threonine-rich mucin stalk region in its extracellular region, a transmembrane segment, and a tyrosine phosphorylation motif in its cytoplasmic tail. CD366 (TIM-3) expression is upregulated on subpopulations of activated myeloid cells including macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells (DC), microglia, mast cells as well as on Type-1 CD4+ (Th1-like) T cells, cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, regulatory T cells (Treg), and natural killer (NK) cells. CD366 (TIM-3) functions as an inhibitory receptor that helps maintain immunological homeostasis and self-tolerance. It may also serve an immune checkpoint molecule that inhibits antitumor immunity and promotes T cell exhaustion. Crosslinking of cell surface CD366 (TIM-3) by Galectin-9 binding downregulates Th1-like and CD8+ T cell responses and can promote Treg or myeloid-derived suppressor cells. CD366 (TIM-3) enables DC to bind phosphatidyl serine expressed by apoptotic cells, phagocytize these cells to suppress inflammation and promote antigen cross-presentation. CD366 (TIM-3) can also bind to high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and inhibit stimulation of the immune response to nucleic acids released by dying tumor cells.
