Description

The PO3.1 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD86, an ~80 kDa surface receptor also known as B7-2. CD86 and CD80 are members of the B7 family of costimulatory molecules. CD86 is expressed at low level on B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells and is upregulated on B cells through a variety of surface stimuli including the BCR complex, CD40 and some cytokine receptors. CD86 is also expressed by activated mouse T cells and thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal cells. In addition to CD80 (B7-1), CD86 is a counter-receptor for the T cell surface molecules CD28 and CD152 (CTLA-4). The interaction of CD86 with its ligands plays a critical role in T-B crosstalk, T cell costimulation, autoantibody production and Th2-mediated Ig production. The kinetics of upregulation of CD86 upon stimulation supports its major contribution during the primary phase of an immune response.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The PO3.1 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. It has also been reported in blocking of CD86 in functional studies.

Applications Tested

The PO3.1 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of resting and activated mouse splenocyte suspensions and can be used at 0.25 µg/million cells. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
