Immunohistochemistry

1:10-1:500

Immunohistochemistry-Frozen

Application Notes
This MG38 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of in vitro derived human dendritic cells and peripheral blood leukocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.03 ug per test. A test is defined as the amount (ug) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 uL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. The MG38 antibody has also been reported for use in immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue sections. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

Background: DEC-205/CD205

The MG38 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD205, also known as DEC-205, an integral membrane protein homologous to the macrophage mannose receptor. CD205 is an endocytic dendritic receptor that mediates efficient processing and presentation of antigens on MHC class II productions in vivo. CD205 is highly expressed by dendritic cells (DCs) within the T cell areas of lymphoid tissues, particularly on CD8+ DCs that are believed to play a role in cross-priming. Expression of CD205 is detected with this antibody at high intensity on in vitro derived mature human DCs (mDC) and at intermediate intensity on immature human DCs (iDC). All leukocytes from peripheral blood show a degree of staining with this mAb that can be minimized by using very low concentrations of MG38.
