Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD200
Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD200
Multi-color analysis of the expression of CD200 on thymocytes. C57BL/6 thymocytes were stained with either purified mAb OX-90 (open histograms) or purified rat IgG2a, κ isotype control mAb R35-95 (Cat. No. 553927, shaded histograms), followed by biotinylated anti-rat IgG2a mAb RG7/1.30 (Cat. No. 553894) then Streptavidin-PE (Cat. No. 554061). Then the cells were stained with FITC-conjugated anti-mouse CD4 mAb and APC-conjugated anti-mouse CD8a mAb 53-6.7 (Cat. No. 553035). Electronic gates were set to include the CD4-CD8a-, CD4+CD8a+, CD4+CD8a-, and CD4-CD8a+ populations, and their expression of CD200 is displayed in the corresponding panels. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ Flow Cytometry System.

Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. Store undiluted at 4°C.

Recommended Assay Procedures

Since this antigen is expressed at low density on resting peripheral leukocytes, it may be desirable to amplify staining by using a biotinylated second-step antibody followed by a "bright" third-step reagent, such as Streptavidin-PE (Cat. No. 554061). We also recommend the use of Mouse BD Fc Block™ (anti-mouse CD16/CD32, mAb 2.4G2, Cat. No. 553141/553142) when Fc Receptor-bearing cells are present. For staining with purified antibody in the presence of Mouse BD Fc Block™, a second-step antibody which does not react with the 2.4G2 antibody (Rat IgG2b, κ) must be used. We have found that biotinylated anti-rat IgG2a mAb RG7/1.30 (Cat. No. 553894) is useful.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  3. 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.
  4. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.

OX-90

The OX-90 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD200 (OX-2 antigen), a type-1 transmembrane glycoprotein containing two extracellular Ig-like domains. CD200 is expressed on thymocytes, neurons, B lymphocytes, splenic follicular dendritic cells and endothelium, and subsets of T lymphocytes and dendritic cells; but not on NK cells, granulocytes, monocytes, or macrophages. CD200 Receptor (CD200R; OX2R) expression is restricted to myeloid cells, and it appears that its engagement with CD200 results in inhibition and/or down-regulation of myeloid cell activity.

Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
