| Product Name | Anti-CD140b / PDGF-RB Monoclonal Antibody |
|---|---|
| Description | CD140b / PDGF-RB (platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta) is a cell surface receptor for members of platelet-derived growth factor family, whose intracellular part contains a tyrosine kinase domain. CD140b forms homodimers, or heterodimerizes with CD140a / PDGF-RA. Whereas CD140a can have both pro-proliferative or anti-proliferative effects, the CD140b induces in various cell types their proliferation and migration. CD140b has also developmental roles in the cardiovascular system and is preferentially expressed on some tumours such as medulloblastoma. The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 20 μl reagent / 100 μl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension.The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests. |
| Clone | 18A2 |
| Immunogen | CD140b-transfected NIH 3T3 cells |
| Isotype | IgG1 |
| Specificity | The monoclonal antibody 18A2 recognizes CD140b / PDGF-RB, the 180-190 kDa beta chain of platelet-derived growth factor receptor, which is widely expressed on a variety of mesenchymal-derived cells and plays pro-proliferative roles. |
| Reactivity | Human |
| Applications | FC, ICC |
| Form | The reagent is provided in stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution containing 15mM sodium azide. |
| Storage | Store in the dark at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Avoid prolonged exposure to light. |
