CD CLUSTERED ANTIBODIES  

(anti-Human and others as indicated)

RDI Division of Fitzgerald Industries Intl  offers a wide line of  antibodies. Since no one antibody works best for all applications (flow cytometry, neutralization, blotting, histochemistry, ELISA, etc), we offer many different types of antibodies to help solve this problem. Please inquire for other applications or types of antibodies not listed below. All products are for in vitro research use only-not for use in or on humans or animals-not for use in diagnostics. Price/availability/specifications subject to change without notice.

APPLICATION  FOR AN INDIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE TECHNIQUE

Reagents

- FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin antiserum (M1204).

  Remove aggregates by centrifugation at 1000 x g for 10 minutes.

- Buffer: Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS), containing 0.2% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA).

- PFA: Para-Formaldehyde 1%, pH 7.2, containing 0.2% BSA.

- Microtiter plates (96 wells, V bottom) or tubes.


Procedure

1 Fixate the cells with PFA 1% and wash them with buffer.

2 Prepare a mononuclear cell suspension with a concentration of 1 x 10 7 cells/ml in buffer.

3 Add 45 µl of cell suspension to the microtiter wells or tubes.

4 Add 5 µl monoclonal antibody to the microtiter wells or tubes and mix gently.

5 Incubate for 30 minutes at 2-8 C.

6 Add 100 µl buffer to the microtiter wells or 2 ml buffer to the tubes and centrifuge at 500 x g for 5 minutes.

7 Aspirate the supernatant from the cell pellet and resuspend the cells.

8 Add 200 µl buffer to the microtiter wells or 2 ml buffer to the tubes and centrifuge at 500 x g for 5 minutes.

9 Aspirate the supernatant from the cell pellet and resuspend the cells.

10 Add 50 µl FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin serum, solid phase adsorbed with human immunoglobulins,     diluted 1:80.

11 Incubate for 30 minutes at 2-8 C.

12 Repeat step 6-9.

13 Add 200 µl buffer.

14 The number of positive cells can be determined by flowcytometry analysis or by means of fluorescence microscopy.


NOTE: Care should be taken when drawing blood to avoid activation of platelets.


Platelets activation markers are weakly expressed on platelets prepared from directly fixed normal whole blood.

The expression is maximal on thrombin (1 U/ml) stimulated washed platelets.

SPECIFICITY

This antibody reacts with a 25 kDa molecular weight band on gels of non-reduced platelet membranes and immunoprecipitates a similar band from I125 labelled platelets. The antigen is expressed on eosinophils, granulocytes, monocytes and numerous stromal cells. This CD9 antigen belongs to the TM4 superfamily of cell surface proteins with the N- and C-terminals cytoplasmically located. This antibody reacts immunohistochemically on frozen sections of platelets, monocytes and pre-B cells with differential staining on lymphoid and epithelial tissues.

CD9 antigen is a 24 to 27kda glycoprotein expressed on the surface of developing B lymphocytes, platelets, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils,s timulated T lymphocytes and by neurons and glial cells in the peripheral nervous system. It belongs to a family of membrane proteins termed tetraspanins which transverse the membrane four times. In pre-B cells and platelets, Cd9 antigen regulates cell activation and aggregation possibly through an association with the integrin CD41/Cd61 (GPIIb/GPIIIa). It also regulates cell motility in a variety of cell lines, and appears to be an important regulator of Schwann cell behaviour in peripheral nerve. In melanoma and breast cancer, CD9 antigen expression may indicate a favorable prognosis as expression has been shown to occur predominantly on primary, non-metastatic tumours.

Sample High Temperature Unmasking Technqiue for Paraffin Sections:  Buffer=1mM EDTA (ph 8.0)

1) Cut and mount sections on slides coated with "apes"

2) Deparrafinize sections and rehydrate to distilled water

3) Bring 1600ml 1mM EDTA* (pH 8.0) to a boil in a Prestige/Presto stainless steel pressure cooker, using a hot plate. Cover but do not lock lid.

4) Position slides into metal staining racks and lower into pressure cooker ensuring slides are well immersed in buffer Lock the lid. The small valve will rise.

5) When the pressure indicator valve (the large one) has risen after about 4 minutes, Incubate sections for 1 minute.

6) After timer rings, Remove pressure cooker from heat source and run under cold water with lid on. When the small valve sinks open lid and remove slides and  place immediately into distilled water. DO NOT OPEN LID UNTIL THE SMALL VALVE Sinks or Vent Cover Lock Drops (see manual with your particular unit).

7) Wash sections PBS buffer (10mM phosphate, 0.15M NaCl pH 7.5) for 2 X 5 minutes (or 100mM TRIS, 0.15M NaCl, pH 7.5)

8) Place sections in 1.5% hydrogen peroxide/methanol for 10 minutes (or use other appropriate peroxidase blocking procedure).

9) Wash sections in distilled water for 2 X 5 minutes, then wash sections in PBS buffer for 2 X 5 minutes.

10) Place sections in normal serum for 20 minutes.

11) Cover sections with primary antibody for at least 60 minutes at room temp. (Optimum dilution, incubation time and temperature must be determined for each antibody and in each lab).

12) Wash in PBS buffer for 2 X 5 minutes

13) Incubate sections in secondary antibody for 30 minutes

14) Wash in PBS buffer for 2 X 5 minutes

15) Incubate slides in ABC complex for 30 minutes

16) Wash in PBS buffer for 2 X 5 minutes

17) Incubate slides in DAB or other suitable peroxidase substrate

18) Wash in distilled water for 2 X 5 minutes

19) Counterstain with haematoxylin (if required), dehydrate, coverslip, and mount

Material:

APES (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) cat#A3648 Sigma

To avoid sections becoming detached, sections should be mounted on "APES"  covered slides, then dried at 37 DEG C overnight followed by drying at 56 DEG  C for 60 minutes.

1mM EDTA (ph 8.0): Add 0.37g of EDTA (Sigma cat#E-5134) to 1 liter of distilled  water. Adjust pH to 8.0 using 1.0M sodium hydroxide.

Tris: 100mmM Tris, 0.15M NaCl, pH 7.5.

PBS: 10mM Phosphate, 0.15M MaCl pH 7.5
