Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. Test size products are transitioning from 20 µl to 5 µl per test. Please check your vial or your CoA to find the suggested use of this reagent per million cells in 100 µl staining volume or per 100 µl of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Read more at www.biolegend.com/testsize regarding the test size change.

Application Notes:
Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats) include: blocking of lymphocyte binding to E-selectin3, and immunohistochemistry1,2 of acetone-fixed frozen sections and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections. The HECA-452 antibody cross-reacts with mouse skin homing lymphocytes4.

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes stained with HECA-452 FITC
Cutaneous Lymphocyte-assiciated Antigen (CLA) is a 140 kD homodimer protein recognized by a unique mAb, HECA-452. It is expressed on T lymphocytes in skin, subsets of peripheral blood memory T cells, NK cells, memory B cells and dendritic cells, as well as on monocytes, granulocytes and activated endothelial cells. CLA is a carbohydrate epitope of sialic acid and fucose-modified P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), a surface glycoprotein expressed on majority of peripheral blood leukocytes. CLA is a subset ligand for E-selectin, P-selectin, and L-selectin. It plays a role in memory lymphocyte homing, tethering, and rolling. Treatment of activated HUVEC cells with HECA-452 antibody inhibits lymphocyte adhesion. The HECA-452 antibody is cross-reactive with mouse CLA and is suitable for staining formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections.
