Description

General description

CD7, also known as gp40, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily found on T cells, NK cells, thymocytes, hematopoietic progenitors, and monocytes (weakly). CD7 is also expressed on acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). CD7 crosslinking induces a calcium flux in T lymphocytes, presumably as a result of cytoplasmic domain association with PI3-kinase. CD7 co-stimulation can induce cytokine secretion and modulate cellular adhesion. A ligand of CD7, epithelial cell secreted protein K12, is produced in thymus to regulate thymocyte signaling and cytokine release. In lung microvascular endothelial cells CD7 serves as an IgM Fc receptor. Expression of CD7 is an important marker used in leukemia diagnostics.

Specificity

The antibody MEM-186 reacts with an extracellular epitope of CD7, a 40 kD type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on peripheral blood T lymphocytes, NK-cells, hematopoietic progenitors, monocytes (weakly) and also on acute lymphocytic leukemia.

Immunogen

Human acute myelogenous leukaemia cell line KG-1.

Physical form

Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 15 mM sodium azide

Preparation Note

Purified antibody is conjugated with activated tandem dye of R-phycoerythrin-cyanine 7 (PE-Cy7) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Storage and Stability

Store at 2-8°C. Protect from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Other Notes

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
