Description

The TEK4 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse Tie-2, also known as CD202. A member of the tyrosine kinase receptor family, Tie-2 is expressed on endothelial and a subset of hematopoietic cells and is believed to play a role in both angiogenesis and hematopoiesis during development of the mouse embryo. In fetal liver and adult bone marrow, Tie-2 is expressed by a subpopulation of hematopoietic progenitor cells characterized as Lineage markers^-, c-Kit⁺, Sca1⁺ cells. Long-term multilineage repopulating cells were detected in Tie-2⁺, Lineage^-, c-Kit⁺, Sca1⁺ cells but not in Tie-2^-, Lineage^-, c-Kit⁺, Sca1⁺ cells.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The TEK4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

The TEK4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse bone marrow cell suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 2 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
