PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD284/MD-2 Complex
PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD284/MD-2 Complex
Expression of TLR4-MD-2 on peritoneal macrophages. Thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c mice were stained with either PE-conjugated rat IgG2a, κ isotype control mAb R35-95 (Cat. No. 553930, left panel) or PE-conjugated mAb MTS510 (right panel), in the presence of Mouse BD Fc Block™ purified anti-mouse CD16/CD32 mAb 2.4G2 (Cat. No. 553141/553142). The macrophages were identified by staining with FITC-conjugated anti-mouse CD11b (Integrin αM chain) mAb M1/70 (Cat. No. 557396/553310). The total viable leukocytes are displayed. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Recommended Assay Procedures

Mouse BD Fc Block™ purified anti-mouse CD16/CD32 mAb 2.4G2 (Cat. No. 553141/553142) may help to reduce non-specific binding to cells bearing Fcγ receptors. If Mouse BD Fc Block™ is used, then it is important that the second-step anti-rat IgG antibody does not cross-react with the 2.4G2 mAb (Rat IgG2b, κ); we recommend the use of biotinylated anti-rat IgG2a mAb RG7/1.30 (Cat. No. 553894) with a "bright" third-step reagent, such as Streptavidin-PE (Cat. No. 554061).

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.

MTS510

The MTS510 antibody reacts with the molecular complex of Toll-Like Receptor 4 and MD-2 (TLR4-MD-2) which is expressed on LPS responsive macrophages. TLR4, a member of the Toll-Like Receptor Family, has been renamed as CD284 and identified to be the transmembrane signal-transducing portion of the receptor for LPS. TLR4 associates on the cell surface with CD14 and MD-2, a 0.7 kDa molecule which is anchored to the membrane via its physical association with TLR4. The association of MD-2 with TLR4 is required for recognition of LPS and the anti-mitotic compound Taxol, which mimics the action of LPS on mouse cells. MTS510 mAb detects TLR4-MD-2 on the surface of thioglycollate-elicited macrophages from all mouse strains tested (ie, BALB/c, C57BL/6, C3H/HeJ, C3H/HeN, and DBA/1), including the C3H/HeJ strain which expresses an LPS-resistant mutant TLR4. Expression of TLR4-MD-2 is down-regulated on peritoneal macrophages after exposure to LPS, correlating with the occurrence of LPS tolerance. TLR4-MD-2 is not detected on splenocytes or thymocytes.

PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
