Description

Description: Identification of human cytotoxic/suppressor T cells expressing the 32 and 43,000 M.W. surface antigen. CD38 antigen is an integral membrane glycoprotein, M.W. 45 kD. Anti-human CD28 binds the 44kDa MW cell surface protein on the surface of most T cells. CD28 acts as the ligand for the B7/BB-1 molecule on the surface of activated B cells. B7/BB-1 co-stimulates T cells through CD28, along with CD2 and CD3. CD28 antigen is a disulfide-linked homodimeric glycoprotein. The CD28 antigen is present on approximately 60%-80% T lymphocytes (95% of CD4 and 50% of CD8 lymphocytes). CD28 regulates the expression of cytokines by T cells, not only IL-2, but also IL-1 alpha and CSF-1, usually synthesized by accessory cells. CD28 functions as a cell adhesion molecule (CAM) for certain T cell subsets.

Application Notes

PBMC: Add 10 µl of MAB/10^6 PBMC in 100 µl PBS. Mix gently and incubate for 15 minutes at 2 to 8C. Wash twice with PBS and analyze or fix with 0.5% v/v of paraformaldehyde in PBS and analyze. WHOLE BLOOD: Add 10 µl of MAB/100 µl of whole blood. Mix gently and incubate for 15 minutes at room temperature (20 C). Lyse the whole blood. Wash once with PBS and analyze or fix with 0.5% v/v of paraformaldehyde in PBS and analyze. See instrument manufacturer's instructions for Lysed Whole Blood and Immunofluorescence analysis with a flow cytometer or microscope. Storage: Antibodies are supplied in PBS, 0.08% sodium azide and 0.2% protein carrier for FITC and PE. Antibodies should be stored at 4-8oC. Mabs should not be frozen. Reagents are stable for the period shown on the vial label when stored properly.
