Monoclonal antibody directed against CD68, which can aid diagnosis of monocytic leukaemia’s and histiocytic neoplasms and help identify macrophages in tissues from various inflammatory and neoplastic disease states. Background and Research Application CD68 is a 110 kD glycoprotein, also known as macrosialin, belonging to the sialomucin family. It is closely related to the family of acidic, highly glycosylated lysosomal-associated membrane proteins (LAMPs). CD68 is predominately expressed in cytoplasmic granules of monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, and granulocytes. It is one of the useful myeloid cell markers. Further studies have shown that CD68 is also expressed by a subset of hematopoietic progenitors, γ/δ T cells, NK cells, LAK cells, subset of B cells, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. The biological function of CD68 is still unknown. Anti-CD68 (Y1/82A) reacted with peripheral blood and bone marrow monocytes and resident macrophages in all tissues tested. Anti-CD68 did not react with other cell types, apart from some osteoclasts and megakaryocytes. This antibody was shown to be useful in characterising monocytic leukaemia’s, histiocytic neoplasms and detecting macrophages in disease. |

| Notes |
Production Details Purified using multi-step affinity chromatography with protein A. Storage Conditions Store at -20 degrees frozen. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Points of Interest The Y1/82A antibody recognises an epitope distinct from those of antibody clones Y2/131, EBM11, Ki-M6 and KP1. Y1/82A is reportedly more specific for monocytes and macrophages than KP1. Y1/82A bound to leukemic cells from patients with acute myelomonocytic leukaemia and acute monocytic leukaemia, but not to neoplastic cells from patients with malignant lymphoproliferative disorders or malignant epithelial tumours. Ultroser G can be used at 1% if the cells are not growing well. Concentration 1mg/ml as standard |
