Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

This monoclonal antibody 9A11 reacts with human CD370, also known as C-type lectin family member 9A (Clec9A) and DNGR1. This type II transmembrane glycoprotein is present at the cell surface in the form of a homodimer. CD370 is a cellular receptor expressed by myeloid cells that recognizes F-actin, a dead cell-associated antigen that is exposed in necrotic cells. Upon ligation, CD370 recruits Syk kinase to the ITAM-like motif in its intracellular tail and facilitates endocytosis of antigenic material that is subsequently processed and cross-presented to CD8+ T cells. Human CD370 is expressed by CD141+ (BDCA3+) dendritic cells and, to a lesser degree, by CD14+ CD16- monocytes. Unlike in mice, human plasmacytoid dendritic cells do not express CD370. This 9A11 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. APC-eFluor™ 780 emits at 780 nm and is excited with the Red laser (633 nm). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome. Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light.

C-type lectin domain family 9 member A (CLEC9A) is a gene located on chromosome 12p13.2, encoding a protein that belongs to the C-type lectin receptor family. CLEC9A is primarily expressed on dendritic cells and certain subsets of macrophages, playing a pivotal role in the immune system by recognizing and binding dead cell debris, including necrotic cells. This receptor facilitates the presentation of antigens derived from dead cells to T cells, thus contributing to the initiation of immune responses. CLEC9A is involved in cross-presentation, a process crucial for adaptive immunity, particularly in the context of viral infections and cancer. Its expression and activity are of particular interest for vaccine development and immunotherapy, given its ability to enhance antigen presentation and stimulate robust immune responses. Research into CLEC9A continues to explore its therapeutic potential for modulating immune activity in various diseases, including cancer and infectious diseases.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

I am unable to analyze my cells stained with eFluor Organic Dyes today. What options do I have?

Our options will depend on the samples you are analyzing.

If cell viability is not critical, you can store your stained samples at 4 degrees C or on ice overnight in the dark and analyze the following day.

For samples stained with eFluor organic fluorochromes, we recommend that cells be suspended in 100 uL of Flow Cytometry Staining Buffer (Cat. No. 00-4222) and 100 uL of eBioscience IC Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8222); samples can be incubated for up to 3 days at 4 degrees C in the dark. Alternatively, the 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Cat. No. 00-5333) can be used. This is a great option when working with whole blood but also works for other cell types.

Can the eFluor Organic fluorochromes be used for intracellular staining?

Yes, the eFluor Organic fluorochromes can be used for intracellular staining. The eFluor organic fluorochromes maintain bright signal and require minimal changes in compensation when fixed with eBioscience IC Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8222-49) and Permeabilization Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8333-56) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Cat. No. 00-5333-54, 00-5333-57) (as compared to live cells).

What buffers are compatible with the eFluor Organic fluorochromes and eVolve QDots?

The eFluor Organic fluorochromes and eVolve QDots can be used with flow staining buffers containing PBS and protein.

What is the difference between eFluor Organic Dyes and eVolve Qdots?

The eFluor Organic Dyes (eFluor 450, APC-eFluor 780, PerCP-eFluor 710, eFluor 710) are conventional fluorochromes. In contrast, the eVolve line of products are Quantum dots.

Are the eFluor Organic Dyes photo-labile?

As with other fluorochromes, we recommend minimal exposure to light to maintain optimal signal.
