Scientific Data Images for Mouse CXCR4 Antibody

Detection of CXCR4 antibody in HEK293 Human Cell Line Transfected with Mouse CXCR4 and eGFP antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of CXCR4 in HEK293 Human Cell Line Transfected with Mouse CXCR4 and eGFP by Flow Cytometry.

HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with mouse CXCR4 and eGFP was stained with (A) Rat Anti-Mouse CXCR4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB21651R) or (B) Rat IgG2B isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0061) followed by APC-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0113).

Detection of CXCR4 antibody in Mouse Thymocytes antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of CXCR4 in Mouse Thymocytes by Flow Cytometry.

Mouse thymocytes were stained with Rat Anti-Mouse CXCR4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB21651R, filled histogram) or Rat IgG2B isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0061, open histogram) followed by Goat anti-Rat IgG PE-conjugated Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0105B).

CXCR4 antibody in Mouse Splenocytes by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

CXCR4 in Mouse Splenocytes.

CXCR4 was detected in immersion fixed mouse splenocytes using Rat Anti-Mouse CXCR4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB21651R) at 1 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL013) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell surfaces and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

Background: CXCR4

CXCR4, also known as CD184, is a G-protein-linked seven transmembrane spanning receptor that binds stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1). CXCR4 acts as a co-factor for T-cell tropic HIV-1 and -2 viral entry into cells. While primarily a membrane protein, CXCR4 undergoes trafficking and internalization in response to stimulation with phorbol esters and ligand (1). Cytoplasmic and nuclear localization of CXCR4 has been observed in colorectal and renal carcinomas (2,3) and it has been used as the basis of prognosis and metastatic state (3,4,5).
