Human paraffin-embedded tonsil tissue slices were prepared with a standard protocol of deparaffinization and rehydration. Antigen retrieval was done with Tris-Buffered Saline 1X (1.0M, pH7.4) at 95°C for 40 minutes. Tissue was washed with PBS/ 0.05% Tween 20 twice for five minutes, permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 for ten minutes and blocked with 5% FBS and 0.2% gelatin for 30 minutes. Then, the tissue was stained with 5 µg/mL of Alexa Fluor® 647 anti-human CD8a (clone C8/144B) antibody (green) and Alexa Fluor® 594 anti-mouse/human Bcl-6 (clone IG191E/A8) antibody (red) at 4°C overnight. The image was captured with a 10X objective.

    Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were surface stained with CD3 Brilliant Violet 421™ and CD4 PE, fixed with Fixation Buffer (Cat No. 420801), permeabilized with Intracellular Staining Permeabilization Wash Buffer (Cat. No. 421002) then intracellular stained with anti-human CD8a (clone C8/144B) Alexa Fluor® 647 (left) or mouse IgG1, κ Alexa Fluor® 647 isotype control (right). Cells were gated on the CD3+ population.

    Paraformaldehyde-fixed (4%), 500 μm-thick mouse spleen section was processed according to the Ce3DTM Tissue Clearing Kit protocol (cat. no. 427701). The section was costained with anti-mouse CD21/CD35 (CR2/CR1) Antibody (clone 7E9) Alexa Fluor® 594 at 5 µg/mL (green), and anti-mouse CD8a Antibody (clone C8/144B) Alexa Fluor® 647 at 5 µg/mL (magenta) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). The section was then optically cleared and mounted in a sample chamber. The image was captured with a 10X objective using Zeiss 780 confocal microscope and processed by Imaris image analysis software.

Description

CD8a is a 32-34 kD type I glycoprotein. It forms a homodimer (CD8a/a) or heterodimer (CD8a/b) with CD8b. CD8, also known as T8 and Leu2, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily found on the majority of thymocytes, a subset of peripheral blood T cells, and NK cells (which express almost exclusively CD8a homodimers). CD8 acts as a co-receptor with MHC class I-restricted T cell receptors in antigen recognition and T cell activation, and has been shown to play a role in thymic differentiation. Two domains in CD8a are important for function: the extracellular IgSF domain binds the α3 domain of MHC class I and the cytoplasmic CXCP motif binds the tyrosine kinase p56 Lck.

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 ≤ 5.0 - 10 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. For 3D immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed tissues, a concentration of 5.0 µg/mL is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

* Alexa Fluor® 647 has a maximum emission of 668 nm when it is excited at 633 nm / 635 nm.
