詳細
Anti-CD4-FITC antibody, mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cell line NS-1 and splenocytes from Balb/c mice immunized with cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4)-transfected mouse T cell hybridoma, 3DT, followed by CD4+ human T cell CEM cells (leukemic lymphoblasts).
CD4, a glycoprotein, is predominantly expressed on the cell membrane of mature, thymus-derived (T) lymphocyte and also to some extent in the monocyte/macrophage lineage. It has a transmembrane domain, cytoplasmic region and an extracellular region of four tandem domain similar like members of Ig superfamily.

免疫原
CD4をトランスフェクトしたマウスT細胞ハイブリド-マ3DT、続いてCD4+ヒトT細胞由来CEM細胞
アプリケーション
FITC Conjugated Monoclonal Anti-Human CD4 has been used for:
- identification, quantification and monitoring of helper/inducer T cells in peripheral blood, biological fluids, lymphoid organs, and other tissues
- analysis of T cell mediated cytotoxicity
- characterization of subtypes of T cell leukemias and lymphomas
- studies of T cells in health and disease
- flow cytometry
生物化学的/生理学的作用
CD4+ T cells acts as a helper/inducer, in providing an activating signal to B cells. It induces T lymphocytes bearing the reciprocal CD8 marker to become cytotoxic/suppressor cells. It is also majorly associated with non-polymorphic region of MHC (major histocompatibility complex) antigen in interacting with targets bearing MHC class II molecules. Thus, it is called as an adhesion molecule. It also behaves as receptor for the GP 120 envelope glycoprotein of human immunodeficiency virus. The CD4 molecules is involved in the adhesion of T lymphocytes to target cells, thymic development, transmission of intracellular signals during T cell activation, and binding to polyclonal immunoglobulins.
Immunoregulatory T cell subset abnormalities in autoimmunity disorders, immunodeficiency diseases, graft versus host disease and following immunosuppressive therapy are often manifested as a change in CD4+/CD8+ ratio in peripheral blood T cells.
ターゲットの説明
CD4は、免疫グロブリン・ス-パ-ファミリ-に由来する単一鎖の膜貫通型糖タンパク質です。CD4は、ヘルパ-/インデュ-サ-T細胞サブセットをはじめ、大部分の胸腺髄質細胞、あるいはミクログリア細胞、樹状細胞やT細胞起源のある種の悪性腫瘍に発現しています。CD4は、MHCクラスII分子に結合し、p56lckプロテインチロシンキナ-ゼと結合します。
