Description

The eBio156-4H9 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human CD48 antigen, also known as B cell activation marker 1, SLAM family member 2, Blast-1 (human), and OX-45 (rat). CD48, a member of the SLAM family and Ig superfamily, is a 45 kDa GPI-linked glycoprotein expressed on the majority of hematopoietic cells. CD2 is the low affinity ligand for CD48. Recent publications have reported differential expression in mice of members of the SLAM family including CD48, CD150, and CD244 among functionally distinct bone marrow hematopoietic progenitors providing a useful tool for prediction of the primitiveness of hematopoietic progenitors. Expression of CD48 in hematopoietic cells is found on many leukocytes with little to none on granulocytes and absent on platelets and erythrocytes. Expression increases on B cells with activation.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This eBio156-4H9 (156-4H9) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis and functional assay.

Applications Tested

This eBio156-4H9 (156-4H9) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. 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.
