Specificity

Recognizes an intracellular antigen of mouse macrophages and monocytes. It reacts strongly with macrophages in lymphoid organs such as tingible body macrophages and macrophages in T cell dependent areas and is extremely useful in immunohistochemistry. Reacts on all mouse strains tested.

Application

Detect Macrophages/Monocytes using this Anti-Macrophages/Monocytes Antibody, clone MOMA-2 validated for use in FC, IH.
Flow Cytometry: membrane permeabilization is recommended for this application.

Immunohistology: FRESH frozen sections at 1:25. The epitope recognized by MAB1852 is formaline sensitive. Fixation in fresh, acetone at 4°C or colder is strongly recommended. Specimens must be completely air dried after acetone fixation. Formalin or PFA fixation is not recommended.

Because of the lower titer, enhanced detection systems such as our poly-HRP secondaries or biotin labelled secondary antibodies followed by SA-FITC are recommended.



Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Atherosclerosis, 206(2), 383-389 (2009-04-11)
We previously reported that deletion of brain type neuronal nitric oxide synthase-alpha (nNOS-alpha) accelerates atherosclerosis in apolipoproteinE (apoE) knockout (ko) mice. The regulation of nNOS expression is complex, involving the generation of mRNA splice variants. The current study investigates occurrence

WIN55,212-2, a potent synthetic agonist of cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2), reduces atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) null mice. Although pharmacologic evidence suggests the anti-atherosclerotic effects of WIN55,212-2 are mediated via CB2, this remains

Arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology, 32(3), 605-612 (2012-01-10)
The immunoinflammatory response plays a critical role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Recent studies suggested an important role for regulatory T (Treg) cells in the inhibition of disease-related vascular inflammation. We hypothesized that induction of a specific Treg

Osteoarthritis (OA) is an age-related progressive degenerative joint disease. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), a transcription factor, is suggested as an attractive therapeutic target to counteract degradative mechanisms associated with OA. Studies suggest that activation of PPARγ by its agonists
Muriel G Blin et al.
Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology, 130, 76-87 (2019-04-01)
The progression of atherosclerosis is based on the continued recruitment of leukocytes in the vessel wall. The previously described role of CD146 in leukocyte infiltration suggests an involvement for this adhesion molecule in the inflammatory response. In this study, we
