DescriptionThe MEL-14 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD62L, a 76 kDa member of the selectin family. CD62L is expressed by neutrophils, monocytes, and subsets of T, B, and NK cells and binds a number of glycosylated, fucosylated, sulfated sialylated glycoproteins including CD34, glycam-1 and MAdCam-1. These interactions mediate rolling of lymphocytes on activated endothelium at the sites of inflammation and homing of cells to the high endothelial venules (HEV) of peripheral lymphoid tissues. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The MEL-14 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemical staining. MEL-14 has also been reported in blocking of adhesion in functional studies. (Please use Functional Grade purified MEL-14, cat. 16-0621, in functional assays.) Applications TestedThe MEL-14 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocyte 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. References
