The human leukocyte antigen system (HLA) is the name of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans and is an essential element for immune function.
This group of genes re- sides on chromosome 6, and encodes cell-surface antigen- presenting proteins and many other genes.
Different classes have different functions: HLA class I antigens (A, B & C) present peptides from inside the cell, including viral peptides if present.
These peptides are produced from digested proteins that are broken down in the proteasomes.
Foreign antigens attract killer T-cells (also called CD8+ or cytotoxic T-cells) that destroy cells.
Applications:This antibody has not been tested in methodologies other than Microcytotoxicity Test.
Potential applications include Flow Cytometry, Cell Typing, Tissue Staining and Chimerism Studies.
Recommended Dilution:Cytotoxicity: Add 0.9ml of 1% BSA in PBS to 100ul of10X working dilution.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Cytotoxicity:Expected Results:Cell death will occur in any test well where the HLA cell surface antigen is recognized by its matched anti-HLA antibody.
Live lymphocytes indicate a negative reaction.
Dead lymphocytes indicate a positive reaction.
Limitations:Cell isolation difficulties, contamination of the lymphocyte preparation with red blood cells, monocytes, platelets or granulocytes, cell concentrations outside acceptable levels, bacterial contamination and/or change in pH of antisera may cause erroneous results.
