This antibody recognizes canine CD4, which binds MHC II, and has been shown to block MHC II-dependent T cell responses in vivo and in vitro. In a canine transplant model, administration of this antibody has been demonstrated to partially deplete circulating T lymphocytes, but alone was not sufficient to prolong allograft survival (Watson, 1993). This antibody is one of a panel of anti-canine monoclonal antibodies can be used in the evaluation of leukemic status in dogs. This antibody has been used in IF and IP analysis to identify the canine homologue of human CD4 (Cobbold, 1994).
This chimeric dog antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Rat IgG2a format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
