DescriptionThe CX5 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse NKG2D, a lectin-like molecule expressed on both human and mouse NK cells. Mouse NKG2D binds to retinoic acid-inducible RAE-1α, -β, -γ, -δ, -ε and the minor histocompatibility molecule H60 and has the ability to costimulate multiple NK activation receptors, through the DAP12/DAP10 adaptor molecules. NKG2D is expressed by all spleen and liver NK cells, NK1.1+ thymocytes, in vitro activated LAK cells, and a subset of splenic NKT cells. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The CX5 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. It has also been reported in blocking of binding of NKG2D to its ligands, RAE-1 and H60, and inhibition NKG2D-dependent NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity against NKG2D ligand-bearing tumors in vitro and in vivo. Applications TestedThe CX5 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 when using this antibody for staining the secondary must be Biotin anti-rat (cat 13-4813). Other secondaries may give suboptimal staining. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. References
