CD23 Monoclonal Antibody Sizes: 50µl, 100µl Catalogue Numbers: MB66045-50, MB66045-100 Product: Mouse IgG1. Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.2% BSA and 0.01% sodium azide. Swiss-Prot: P06734 Host: Mouse Reactivity: Human Applications: IHC All Applications: IHC (1/100 - 1/300) Background: The human leukocyte differentiation antigen CD23 (FCE2) is a type II integral membrane glycoprotein that is expressed on mature B cells, monocytes, eosinophils, platelets and dendritic cells. In mouse, CD23 is found only on mature B cells. CD23 is a low affinity IgE receptor that mediates IgE-dependent cytotoxicity and phagocytosis by macrophages and eosinophils. CD23 associates as an oligomer where cooperative binding of at least two lectin domains is required for high affinity IgE binding to CD23. It may play a role in antigen presentation by B cells by interacting with CD40. CD23 has been shown to be associated with the Fyn tyrosine kinase. The truncated molecule can be secreted, then function as a potent mitogenic growth factor. ADAM8, ADAM15 and MDC-L catalyze ectodomain shedding of CD23. Intestinal cells coexpress CD23a and CD23b, and the two splice forms show different localizations in polarized cells. Purification and Purity: The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE). Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Note: For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedure. Extra Notes: Immunohistochemical analysis of CD23 staining in human tonsil formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6. 0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. Bioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 36 kDa Specificity: Recognizes endogenous levels of CD23 protein.
