Product Specifications
Immunogen
HLA-A2.1/human beta2-microglobulin double transgenic mice were immunized with murine L cells transfected with both human beta2-microglobulin and HLA G Antibody (G233)
Specificity
This antibody (clone G233) recognizes several isoforms of HLA-G expressed in all populations of extravillous trophoblast (cell columns, interstitial trophoblast, endovascular trophoblast, placental bed giant cells). HLA-G belongs to the nonclassical MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ib). The antibody has been found not to cross-react with any other MHC Class I antigens (HLA-A, -B, -C, -E, -F).
Clonality
Monoclonal
Host
Mouse
Isotype
IgG2A
Applications for HLA G Antibody (G233) [PE/Cy7]
Application
Recommended Usage
Flow Cytometry
Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
Optimal dilution of this antibody should be experimentally determined. For optimal results using our Tandem dyes, please avoid prolonged exposure to light or extreme temperature fluctuations. These can lead to irreversible degradation or decoupling. When staining intracellular targets, specific attention to the fixation and permeabilization steps in your flow protocol may be required. Please contact our technical support team at technical@novusbio.com if you have any questions.

Background: HLA-G
Discovered in cytotrophoblasts, HLA-G is involved in fetal maternal immune tolerance and some studies have linked its downregulation with severe preeclampsia (3). HLA-G mediated immune suppression works by impeding cell proliferation, differentiation, cytotoxicity, cytokine secretion and chemotaxis; and activation of regulatory cells and MDSCs or M2 type macrophage. HLA-G is constitutively expressed in immune-privileged sites such as pancreatic islets, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and the cornea. Upregulation of HLA-G occurs in pathological states including cancer, allo-transplantations, viral infections, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases (4). In cancer, HLA-G expression is induced by hypoxia and has been correlated with advanced tumor stage, tumor metastasis, and poor therapeutic response and survival. HLA-G is an attractive tumor associated-antigen (TAA) for immunotherapy and is considered a major immune checkpoint (ICP).
