Scientific Data Images for Human CD38 Antibody

Detection of Human CD38 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human CD38 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of MOLT-4 human acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line, RPMI 8226 human multiple myeloma cell line, and CEM human T-lymphoblastoid cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human CD38 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2404) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific and diffuse band was detected for CD38 at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of Human CD38 antibody by Simple WesternTM.

Detection of Human CD38 by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of Raji human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for CD38 at approximately 64 kDa (as indicated) using 10 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human CD38 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2404) . This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Detection of CD38 in human tonsil.

CD38 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human tonsil using Sheep Anti-Human CD38 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2404) at 0.3 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Sheep IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC006). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell surface in lymphocytes.

Background: CD38

CD38, also known as ADP-ribosyl cyclase, is a Type II integral membrane protein. The enzyme is able to transform NAD(P)+ into three different products with calcium mobilizing ability, cyclic ADP-ribose, NAADP+, and ADP-ribose (1). CD38 is expressed in B and T lymphocytes, osteoclasts, and in cardiac, pancreatic, liver and kidney cells (2, 3). Through its production of cyclic ADP-ribose, CD38 modulates calcium-mediated signal transduction in many types of cells, including neutrophils and pancreatic beta cells (4, 5).
