Description

Description: This GI191E monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse and human Bcl-6, which is also known as B-cell lymphoma 6. A member of the POZ family of transcriptional repressors, Bcl-6 is expressed most abundantly in germinal center B cells, as well as in differentiating and activated B cells. This 79-kDa protein is essential for germinal center B cell proliferation and survival. Moreover, during B cell development, Bcl-6 plays an important role in promoting pre-B cell survival to enable the generation of a diverse B cell repertoire. Moreover, Bcl-6 is expressed constitutively in diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCLs), Burkitt's lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Reports also suggest expression of Bcl-6 in CD4+ T follicular helper cells and memory T cells. Bcl-6 has been reported to be antagonized by Blimp-1.

Experimental details

Western blot analysis was performed on whole cell extracts (30 µg lysate) of Raji (Lane 1), Ramos (Lane 2), Daudi (Lane 3), Jurkat (Lane 4) and MOLT-4 (Lane 5). The blot was probed with Anti-BCL6 Monoclonal Antibody (Product # 14-9887-82, 1 µg/mL) and detected by chemiluminescence using Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, HRP conjugate (Product # A28177, 0.25 µg/mL, 1:4000 dilution). A 95 kDa band corresponding to BCL6 was observed across the cell lines tested except in Jurkat and MOLT-4.

Experimental details

Immunofluorescence analysis BCL6 was performed using 70% confluent log phase Raji (B-cell lineage) cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100 for 15 minutes, and blocked with 1% BSA for 1 hour at room temperature. The cells were labeled with BCL6 Monoclonal Antibody (GI191E) (Product # 14-9887-82) at 5 microgram/mL in 0.1% BSA, incubated at 4 degree Celsius overnight and then labeled with Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugate (Product # A28175) at a dilution of 1:2000 for 45 minutes at room temperature (Panel a: green). Nuclei (Panel b: blue) were stained with SlowFade® Gold Antifade Mountant with DAPI (Product # S36938). F-actin (Panel c: red) was stained with Rhodamine Phalloidin (Product # R415, 1:300). Panel d represents the merged image showing nuclear localization. Panel e represents control cells with no primary antibody to assess background. Panel f represents negative control, MOLT-4 (T-cell lineage). The images were captured at 60X magnification.
