Description

CD4, also known as T4, is a 55kD glycoprotein member of the immunoglobin superfamily and is expressed on majority of thymocytes, macrophages, and a peripheral T cell subset (T helper cells). CD4 is a T cell co-receptor that interacts with the MHC class II molecule and is involved in T cell activation.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.25 µg per 106 cells in 100 µl volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Blue Laser (488 nm)
Application Notes

The OX-38 antibody has been shown to bind the same CD4 epitope as the W3/25 antibody, and a different epitope than the OX-35 antibody. Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats of this clone) include: immunohistochemical staining of acetone-fixed frozen sections and blocking function1.
