Product Specific Information
Description: The HM48-1 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse CD48 antigen; also known as BCM1, Blast-1 (human), and OX-45 (rat). CD48, a member of the SLAM family and Ig superfamily, is a 45 kDa GPI-linked glycoprotein expressed on the majority of hematopoietic cells. Recent publications have reported differential expression of members of the SLAM family including CD48, CD150, and CD244 among functionally distinct bone marrow hematopoietic progenitors providing a useful tool for prediction of the primitiveness of hematopoietic progenitors based on the expression of these SLAM family members. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are highly purified as CD150(+)CD244(-)CD48(-) cells while non-self-renewing multipotent hematopoietic progenitors (MPP) are CD244(+)CD150(-)CD48(-) and the most restricted progenitors are CD48(+)CD244(+)CD150(-). CD48 plays a critical role in adhesion and T cell activation. In the mouse, the primary counter-receptors for CD48 are CD2 and CD244. HM48-1 is reported to modulate in vitro and in vivo CD48 functions including blocking the CD48/CD2 and CD48/CD244 interactions, inhibiting the proliferative response of mitogen-activated spleen cells, providing a costimulation signal for T cells activated in vitro through their TCR, and prolonging cardiac allograft survival in vivo.
Applications Reported: This HM48-1 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: This HM48-1 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This may be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
PE-eFluor 610 can be excited with laser lines from 488-561 nm and emits at 607 nm. We recommend using a 610/20 band pass filter (equivalent to PE-Texas Red). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.
Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light.
Fixation: Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Product # 00-8222-49) (100 µL of cell sample + 100 µL of IC Fixation Buffer) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Product # 00-5333-57) 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: 607 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser.
Target Information
CD48, also known as Blast-1, is a 45 kDa glycoprotein that is part of the SLAM and Ig superfamilies. It is a GPI-anchored protein broadly expressed on most hematopoietic cells, including lymphocytes and monocytes, but is weakly expressed on granulocytes and absent on platelets, fibroblasts, epithelium, and endothelium. CD48 plays a critical role in adhesion and T cell activation, serving as a high-affinity ligand for 2B4 and a low-affinity ligand for CD2. The interaction between 2B4 and CD48 among NK and NK-T cells regulates cell proliferation. CD48 is involved in eosinophil activation and its expression increases in several infectious diseases. It is also a marker for detecting defects in the GPI anchoring structure in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobulinuria (PNH). Recent studies have highlighted the differential expression of SLAM family members, including CD48, CD150, and CD244, among bone marrow hematopoietic progenitors. This provides a useful tool for predicting the primitiveness of hematopoietic progenitors: hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are CD150(+)CD244(-)CD48(-), non-self-renewing multipotent progenitors (MPPs) are CD244(+)CD150(-)CD48(-), and the most restricted progenitors are CD48(+)CD244(+)CD150(-). Additionally, the 2B4-CD48 interaction may be involved in the pathology of allergic airway diseases, offering a potential pharmacological target for treating conditions like allergic rhinitis and asthma.
