Human CXCR4 Antibody

Chemotaxis Induced by CXCL12/SDF‑1 alpha and Neutralization by Human CXCR4 Antibody.

Recombinant Human/Feline/Rhesus Macaque CXCL12/SDF-1a (Catalog # 350-NS) chemoattracts the BaF3 mouse pro-B cell line transfected with human CXCR4 in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). The amount of cells that migrated through to the lower chemotaxis chamber was measured by Resazurin (Catalog # AR002). Chemotaxis elicited by Recombinant Human/Feline/Rhesus Macaque CXCL12/SDF-1a (1 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse Anti-Human CXCR4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB173). The ND₅₀ is typically 1-5 µg/mL.

Detection of Canine CXCR4 by Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence

Ectopic expression of CXCR7 and CXCR4 on MDCK cells.(A) MDCK were stably transfected with empty vector (Mock), with CXCR7, CXCR4, a vector coding for a CXCR7 lacking the cytoplasmic C-terminus ( deltaCXCR7), and a vector coding for a chimeric CXCR7 containing the DRYLAIV motive of CXCR4. Receptor expression was determined by FACS analysis using saturating antibody concentrations (see Methods). (B) Confocal immunofluorescence analysis of unfixed MDCK cells expressing CXCR7 (upper panels) or CXCR4 (lower panels). Cells also expressed N-ter-Lck mCherry as membrane marker (red fluorescence). Left panels: confocal images of planes cut through intracellular regions of MDCK monolayers. Right panels: x-z planes reconstructed from confocal x-y stacks. For receptor (green) detection anti-CXCR7 (11G8 R&D) or anti CXCR4 (MAB173 R&D) were used. Receptor-bound primary antibodies were revealed with goat anti mouse IgG conjugated with Alexa488 (green fluorescence).
