This CD4 antibody is useful for ICC, Western Blot, and IHC-paraffin embedded sections. In WB, a band is seen ~45 kDa. In ICC/IF, membrane staining was observed in human brain cells. Prior to immunostaining paraffin tissues, antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) is recommended. In ICC/IF, membrane staining was observed in Jurkat cells.
In Simple Western only 10 - 15 uL of the recommended dilution is used per data point.

Background: CD4
Given its critical role in T cell development, CD4 also has diverse immunology-related functions. CD4 acts as a coreceptor with the T-cell receptor (TCR) during T cell activation and thymic differentiation by binding directly to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigens and associating with the protein tyrosine kinase, Lck (4). This interaction contributes to the formation of the immunological synapse (5). Defects in antigen presentation cause dysfunction of CD4+ T cells and the almost complete loss of MHC II expression on B cells in peripheral blood, as observed in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (6). CD4 also functions as a receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by binding to gp120, the envelope glycoprotein of HIV-1. It has been shown that the V-like domains are critical for binding to gp120 (7). In immune mediated and infectious diseases of the central nervous system, CD4 functions as an indirect mediator of neuronal damage (8).

FAQs for CD4 Antibody - BSA Free
-
A: I just had a look at our QC records and I do not see any mention on using this antibody without antigen retrieval. Moreover, the inclusion or exclusion of antigen retrieval step in protocol depends primarily on the time allowed for tissues fixation (if the tissues were left in fixative for longer time, say more than 14 hours, I would not suggest you to omit the antigen retrieval step). The IHC use of our above mentioned antibody has been cited in couple of recent peer reviewed publications (Immunol Lett. 2011 Aug 30;138:169-78; Cryobiology. 2012 Feb;64:27-32) and you may follow the same for comparison of your IHC outcome.
-
Q: I want to stain some T cell subsets (Th17 and Th1), do you have antibodies for that? I need for flow cytometer in sheep or goat.
A: Unfortunately, we have neither a CD4 antibody nor an IL-17 antibody that has been validated in sheep or goat, although if you would like to try one you would again be eligible for our Innovators Reward Program. Please contact us at innovators@novusbio.com with any questions regarding this program. -
Q: Unmasking method used for detection of Mouse CD4 cells in FFPE tissue secitons with NBP1-19371. HIER with citrate buffer pH6 or enzyme digestion. Details would be very much appreciated. I have this Ab and need some information before I begin to use it on mouse FFPE tissues.
A: I would recommend antigen retrieval using citrate buffer at pH6. Please see this link for our antigen retrieval protocol. -
A: We have only designated that it is IgG and have not isotyped it further.
