Anti-CD98 heavy chain [HBJ127]

HBJ127 binds to the CD98 heavy chain at an epitope consisting of residues AFS (aa 442-444) (Itoh et al, 2007). The antibody has not been shown to cross-react with other species. CD98 is expressed at high levels on monocytes and at very low level on periph

HBJ127 can inhibit lymphocyte activation and proliferation in vitro (Yagita and Hashimoto, 1986), as well as inhibit the growth of human bladder tumors (Yagita, 1986). The antibody also mediates the inhibition of DNA synthesis of Con A-stimulated lymphocytes at concentrations greater than 13 microg/ml, the inhibition of mAB 6-1-13-induced c-src expression and the inhibition of mAb 6-1-13-induced polykaryocyte formation. In addition, HBJ127 can enhance expression of the mannose receptor on the surface of monocytes derived from healthy humans. HBJ127 shows positive staining of murine L929 cells transiently expressing human CD98 heavy chain in IF studies. The antibody can also be used to detect CD98 heavy chain by ELISA.
