Description
Description: This 4B4 (4B4-1) monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD137 (also known as 4-1BB or TNFRSF9), which is an inducible member of the TNFR family of costimulatory molecules expressed on T cells, natural killer cells, dendritic cells, granulocytes, and mast cells. Involved in recruiting TNFR-associated factors (TRAF) 1 and 2, CD137 signaling plays a role in T cell activation, maintaining the survival of activated and CD8 memory T cells, as well as suppressing myelopoiesis and dendritic cell development. Stimulation of this receptor has also been shown to promote expansion of CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells \i{ex vivo\i}. The ligand for CD137, 4-1BBL, is found on activated macrophages, mature B cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and myeloid progenitor cells. Applications Reported: This 4B4 (4B4-1) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This 4B4 (4B4-1) antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of stimulated normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 µL (0.125 µg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. PerCP-eFluor® 710 emits at 710 nm and is excited with the blue laser (488 nm); it can be used in place of PerCP-Cyanine5.5. We recommend using a 710/50 bandpass filter, however, the 695/40 bandpass filter is an acceptable alternative. Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome. Fixation: Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Product # 00-822-49) (100 µL cell sample + 100 µL IC Fixation Buffer) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Product # 00-5333-54) for up to 3 days in the dark at 4°C with minimal impact on brightness and FRET efficiency/compensation. Some generalizations regarding fluorophore performance after fixation can be made, but clone specific performance should be determined empirically. Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 710 nm; Laser: Blue Laser. Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
