Description

The NOK-1 monoclonal antibody reacts with human Fas (CD95) Ligand, a 40 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein. FasL is a member of the TNF family and is expressed by neutrophils, monocytes, and activated T cells and NK cells. The interaction of FasL with its receptor (CD95, Fas) induces Fas-mediated killing of lymphocytes. Human FasL is cleaved from the surface by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), resulting in a 26 kDa soluble form. Therefore for optimal detection of surface FasL on activated peripheral blood cells, incubation of cells with an MMP inhibitor is recommended.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. NOK-1 has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. NOK-1 has also been reported in blocking of FasL mediated killing in functional assays.

Applications Tested

The NOK-1 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of human peripheral blood leukocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 μg per 100 μl blood (or per 1 million cells in 100 μl total staining volume). It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
