DescriptionThe 23C6 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human CD51/CD61 dimer, also known as the integrin αv/β3. CD51, an ~120 kDa surface molecule can also non-covalently associate with other β subunits of the integrin family including β1 (CD29), β5 and β6 to form receptors for extracellular matrix components. Heterodimers of CD51/CD61 are expressed by melanoma cells, endothelial cells and osteoclasts and at very low levels by platelets. The CD51/CD61 complex mediates adhesion to fibrinogen, fibronectin, vitronectin and thrombospondin. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The 23C6 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, and immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue sections. 23C6 has also been reported in blocking of some adhesive processes. (Please use Functional Grade purified 23C6 in functional assays.) Applications TestedThe 23C6 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of human melanoma cell line and peripheral blood. 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
