Extra Details:
In the mouse, CD8 exists in two forms–a CD8 heterodimer composed of an a chain (CD8a) and a b chain (CD8b); and (ii) a homodimer of two a chains.The heterodimer is found on the surface of essentially all thymocytes and the “suppressor/cytotoxic” subpopulation of mature T lymphocytes. Subsets of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes express CD8a without CD8b. It has been suggested that CD8+b T cells mature extrathymically, while development of the CD8a+b+ population of T cells is thymus-dependent. CD8 acts as a coreceptor with MHC Class I- restricted T cell receptors in antigen recognition and positive selection of MHC class I-restricted CD8+ T cells. In vivo and in vitro treatment with the monoclonal antibody effectively depletes CD8a+ cells. I MHC antigens and T cell responses to IL-2. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Flow Cytometry: 0.2ug/10e6 cells Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4°C in the dark.
