Background: Ly-6G (Gr-1)
Expression of Ly-6G and Ly-6C, along with other lineage markers, help define specific cell types (2,4). For example, mouse myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), which play a role in inflammation and tumor development, are further subdivided into granulocytic (G-MDSCs) or monocytic (Mo-MDSCs) (4). Mo-MDSCs express Ly-6Chi along with CD11b, but are negative for Ly-6G, whereas G-MDSCs express Ly-6Clo/int,Ly-6Ghi , and CD11b (4).
The monoclonal antibody RB6-8C5 first identified granulocyte-differentiation antigen (Gr-1) which is primarily expressed on the surface of neutrophils and immature myeloid cells, and to a lesser extent on lymphocytes and macrophages (1). Gr-1 expression increases as neutrophils mature but remains is stably expressed in monocytes (1). The RB6-8C5 reacts with both Ly-6G and Ly-6C, whereas 1A8 antibody is specific for Ly-6G (1). Antibodies against Ly-6G, such as RB6-8C5 and 1A8, are commonly used to identify a role for neutrophils in mouse models of disease as they are efficient for quickly depleting neutrophils (1). RB6-8C5, however, also targets and depletes Ly-6Chi monocytes in addition to other Ly-6G-expressing cells (1).
