DescriptionThe CBRM1/5 monoclonal antibody reacts with an activation-specific epitope of human Mac-1. CBRM1/5 binds a subset of Mac-1 molecules on neutrophils and monocytes after stimulation with chemoattractants or phorbol esters but does not recognize Mac-1 on resting myeloid cells. Through interactions with its ligands, Mac-1 participates in adhesive cell interactions. The epitope recognized by this mAb localizes to the I domain on the α chain of Mac-1 very close to the ligand binding site in a region that is widely exposed. CBRM1/5 blocks Mac-1 dependent adhesion to fibrinogen and ICAM-1 and inhibits chemoattractant-stimulated adhesion of eosinophils to the Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The CBRM1/5 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. CBRM1/5 has also been reported in blocking of CD11b function. Applications TestedThe CBRM1/5 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of resting and activated human peripheral leukocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 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
