Description

The M18/2 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD18, the 90-95 kDa integrin β₂ glycoprotein. CD18 is the common β subunit that non-covalently associates with CD11a (α_L), CD11b (α_M) and CD11c (α_X) to form LFA-1, Mac-1 and gp150/95. Heterodimers of CD18 and the a subunits are expressed broadly by all leukocytes with NK and T cells showing higher density of surface expression. Through the interactions of LFA-1, Mac-1 and gp150/95 with their counter-receptors, CD18 is involved in cellular adhesion and the immune response.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The M18/2 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

The M18/2 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocyte and bone marrow cell suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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.
