Mouse TLR2 is expressed by the myeloid lineage, including macrophage and dendritic cells in splenocytes and the RAW264.7 cell line. To date, at least twelve members of the Toll family have been identified in human and mouse. This family of type I transmembrane proteins is characterized by an extracellular domain with leucine-rich repeats and a cytoplasmic domain with homology to the type I IL-1 receptor. Two of these receptors, TLR2 and TLR4, are pattern recognition receptors and signaling molecules in response to bacterial lipoproteins and have been implicated in innate immunity and inflammation. TLR2 is expressed on the surface of cells and is responsible for distinguishing different pathogens. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. 6C2 has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. For optimal flow cytometry staining with this antibody, it is recommended that a directly conjugated 6C2 (FITC, PE, or Biotin) be used in combination with FcR blocking with anti-mouse CD16/CD32 (clone 93, cat.14-0161). Applications TestedThe 6C2 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocyte suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 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. References
