Immunogen | This antibody was raised by immunising DA rats with PVG.R8 rat spleen cells. Splenocytes from immunised rats were then isolated, and fused to the myeloma line NSO/u to generate stable hybridomas. |
Specificity | This antibody recognises the rat RT1Bu/Du MHC class II antigen, and cross-reacts with haplotypes c, d, l and n. This antibody stains MHC class II molecules in a number of rat strains, including PVG, F334, LEW, and BN. However, this antibody is not reactive with RT1a haplotype rats, including Wistar rats. This antibody also cross-reacts with murine I-A and I-E molecules of all haplotypes tested, including H-2b, d, f and k, so can be used in all mouse strains. This antibody reacts with murine MHC class II I-A and I-E molecules, as confirmed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of Ia immunoprecipitates from metabolically labelled murine lymphoma cells (Momburg et al, 1986). Cross-blocking studies with anti-Ia β-chain MAbs indicate that P7/7 binds to the β-chain of murine Ia (Momburg et al, 1986). This antibody has been used to stain acetone-fixed mouse pancreas sections to study lymphocyte infiltration (Signore et al, 1987; Signore et al, 1989) and ethanol-fixed mouse brain sections (McMenamin et al, 1998). In flow cytometric analysis, this antibody has been employed to identify MHC class II-expressing murine cells (Hayball & Lake, 2004; Heath et al, 1991), and to analyse the surface phenotype of murine N9 microglial cells (Dimayuga et al, 2005). This antibody has been used in immunofluorescence analysis of acetone-fixed thymus sections to identify MHC-II positive and negative medullae (Aschenbrenner et al, 2007). |
