DescriptionThe CD28.2 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human CD28 molecule, a 44 kDa homodimer expressed by thymocytes, mature T cells and plasma cells. CD28 is a ligand for CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2) and is a potent co-stimulator of T cells. Signaling through CD28 augments IL-2 and IL-2 receptor expression as well as cytotoxicity of CD3-activated T cells. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The CD28.2 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemical staining. The recommended titer for immunoprecipitation is ~ 2-5 μg per million cells. CD28.2 has also been reported in costimulation of T cells in in vitro functional assays. (Please use Functional Grade purified CD28.2, cat. 16-0289, in functional assays.) Applications TestedThe CD28.2 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of human peripheral blood leukocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 μg per 100 μl blood (or per 1 million cells in 100 μl total staining volume). It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. References
