Description
The eBioA1 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD39 also known as ENTPD1- ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 1 or NTPDase. CD39 is an integral membrane protein with two transmembrane domains and exists as a homotetramer. It is the most prominent ectoenzyme of the immune system. The function of CD39 is to effectively remove toxic extracellular ATP by converting it to ADP or AMP. CD39 is thought to work together with CD73 to hydrolyze ATP and has been well characterized on langerhan cells. Expression of CD39 is originally identified on activated lymphocytes. Expression is also found on a subset of T cells, B cells and dendritic cells with weak staining on monocytes and granulocytes.
Recently CD39 and CD73 have been found on regulatory T cells specifically the effector/memory like T cells. Functionally CD39 may allow Tregs to enter inflamed areas where high levels of ATP are present. Expression of Foxp3+ Cd4 positives cells range from 25-45% CD25+/CD39+ which his consistent with the findings of Borsellino et al.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This eBioA1 (A1) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, and immunohistochemical staining.
Applications Tested
This eBioA1 (A1) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of nomral human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 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.
