Product name: CD90 (Thy-1) Monoclonal Antibody (eBio5E10 (5E10)), PE-Cyanine5, eBioscience™
Antibody type: Monoclonal
Antigen: Other
Description: Description: The eBio5E10 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD90, also known as Thy-1 (thymus cell antigen-1). CD90 is a 25-35 kD receptor expressed on thymocytes, CD34+ prothymocytes, hematopoietic stem cells, neurons, a small subset of human fetal liver cells, cord blood cells, and bone marrow cells. CD90 is expressed on a subset of immature, CD34+ cells and a distinct subset of mature CD34- cells that are CD3+CD4+. The CD90+CD34+ population is enriched for cells capable of long-term culture. CD90 is involved in regulation of adhesion and signal transduction by T cells. Applications Reported: This eBio5E10 (5E10) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This eBio5E10 (5E10) antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometrric analysis of human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells. This can be used at 5 µL (0.25 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. Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light. 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: 488-561 nm; Emission: 667 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser. Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

(F) BNC1 silencing can be achieved in human foetal primary epicardium using siRNA as shown by RT-PCR (Fa) and immunofluorescence (Fb). The knockdown of BNC1 in human foetal primary epicardium leads to a greater than 5-fold increase in TCF21 RNA (Fc) ( n =3). The RT-PCR data shown in Aa, B, C, Fa and Fc were obtained by the quantitative relative standard curve protocol as described in Materials and Methods. RNA measurements were normalised to housekeeper genes porphobilinogen deaminase ( PBGD ) or GAPDH . Statistics were performed with Prism 7 from GraphPad with a ratio paired t -test.
