Relevance Lewis X (CD15) is a branched pentasaccharide found on neutrophils, eosinophils and monocytes. Lewis X is distributed abnormally in myeloid leukeamias. Lewis X is commonly used in the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease. It can also be used for analysis of myeloid leukaemias and the study of myeloid differentiation.
Host Mouse
Immunogen B cell lymphoma cells
Subclass IgM
Myeloma Used P3/NS1/1-Ag4.1
Recommended Growing Conditions RPMI 1640 + 10% FCS + penicillin (100U/ml) + streptomycin (100mg/l) + glutamine (2mM) + HAT
Notes Ultroser G can be used at 1% if the cells are not growing well.
