Scientific Data Images for Human CD31/PECAM-1 Antibody

Detection of Human CD31/PECAM-1 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human CD31/PECAM‑1 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of HUVEC human umbilical vein endothelial cells. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human CD31/PECAM-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # BBA7) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF018). A specific band was detected for CD31/PECAM-1 at approximately 130 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

CD31/PECAM-1 in HUVEC Human Cells.

CD31/PECAM-1 was detected in immersion fixed HUVEC human umbilical vein endothelial cells using 10 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human CD31/PECAM-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # BBA7) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

CD31/PECAM-1 Specificity is Shown by Immunocytochemistry in Knockout Cell Line.

CD31/PECAM-1 was detected in immersion fixed THP-1 human acute monocytic leukemia cell line but is not detected in CD31/PECAM-1 knockout (KO) THP-1 human cell line using Mouse Anti-Human CD31/PECAM-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # BBA7) at 8 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell membrane. Staining was performed using our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

Background: CD31/PECAM-1

The CD31 adhesion molecule, also known as PECAM-1, is expressed in large amounts on endothelial cells at intercellular junctions and on T cell subsets, and to a lesser extent on platelets and most other leukocytes such as monocytes and neutrophils. CD31 binds to itself homotypically, and also to the leukocyte integrin alphav beta3 heterotypically. CD31 is required for the transendothelial migration of leukocytes through intercellular junctions of vascular endothelial cells. CD31 has been found in human plasma, and the presence of this circulating isoform is suggested to modulate the transendothelial migration of leukocytes.
