Description
The O78-1208 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the mouse Interleukin-23 Receptor (IL-23R) subunit that is encoded by the il23r gene. The IL-23R subunit is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and member of the hemopoietin receptor superfamily. The mouse IL-23 Receptor complex is comprised of IL-23R and IL-12 receptor beta 1 (IL-12Rβ1) subunits. The IL-23R complex can bind IL-23, a cytokine that plays roles in innate and adaptive immunity as well as in autoimmune diseases, eg, by the generation and maintenance of Th17 cells. Mouse IL-23R is expressed by activated/memory CD4+ T cells, Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells, γδ T cells, dendritic cells and macrophages as determined by IL-23R mRNA expression and IL-23R-GFP reporter mouse studies. The IL-23-bound IL-23R complex transduces an intracellular signal pathway mediated by a Jak-STAT signaling cascade.
Put all BD® AbSeq Reagents to be pooled into a Latch Rack for 500 µL Tubes (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4900). Arrange the tubes so that they can be easily uncapped and re-capped with an 8-Channel Screw Cap Tube Capper (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4105MAT) and the reagents aliquoted with a multi-channel pipette. BD® AbSeq tubes should be centrifuged for ≥ 30 seconds at 400 × g to ensure removal of any content in the cap/tube threads prior to the first opening.
Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography and conjugated to BD® AbSeq oligonucleotide under optimal conditions.
1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended volume per test. Typical use is 2 µl for 1 × 10^6 cells in a 200-µl staining reaction.
2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
4. The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
