Extra Details:: CD90/Thy-1, a GPI-anchored molecule and one of the smallest members of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell surface receptors, consists of a single V-set domain.1-4 It is expressed on thymocytes, peripheral T lymphocytes, some intraepithelial T lymphocytes and neurons of all mouse strains.1,2 This antibody stimulates T-cell proliferation and IL-2 secretion, via signalling through the T-cell receptor/CD3 complex.1,5-7 The antibody has also been reported to promote apoptosis of thymocytes and CTL clones,4,7 and to mediate adhesion of thymocytes to thymic stroma.8 Applications: • Flow cytometry 1,10 • Immunocytochemistry (acetone-fixed, frozen sections) 10 • In vitro T cell activation 1,5,6,9 • Induction of apoptosis 4,7 Recommended Dilution: Flow Cytometry: ≤ 0.2ug/10e6 cells Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
