Anti-MHC II [OX-6]

Absolute Antibody

Anti-MHC II [OX-6]

7

This antibody recognises a monomorphic determinant of the rat MHC II (I-A) antigen present on B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, some macrophages and certain epithelial cells. It also cross-reacts with mouse MHC, specifically I-A[k] and I-A[s]

This antibody binds to the rat MHC II (I-A) antigen, and cross-reacts with mouse I-A[k] and I-A[s]. Consequently, this antibody can be used to assess the tissue distribution of rat Ia antigens, indicating high Ia antigen expression on peripheral B lymphocytes, and significantly lower expression on thymocytes and T lymphocytes (McMaster, 1979).

This antibody was prepared by subcutaneously injecting non-polymorphic MHC class II (Ia-like glycoproteins) from the membranes of rat thymocytes into BALB/c mice.
