Description

The MECA-367 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse mucosal vascular addressin-1 (MAdCAM-1), a 50-60 kDa member of the Ig superfamily. This antigen is expressed in mucosal lymphoid tissue and lamina propria and is a counter-receptor for CD62L and CD49d. MAdCAM-1 is involved in homing of subpopulation of memory T cells to the gut lamina propria, and recirculation of naïve lymphocytes in Peyer’s patches and mesenteric lymph nodes.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. MECA-367 can be used in flow cytometric analysis, immunohistochemical staining of frozen mouse tissue sections, blocking in adhesion assays, immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting (WB).

Applications Tested

The MECA-367 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse bone marrow cells and splenocyte suspensions and can be used at less than or equal to 1 μg/million cells. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
